In reply to the discussion: McConnell says Trump's court pick will get Senate vote despite Ginsburg's dying wish [View all]RandomHall
(13 posts)Impeach Trump (again); we know he deserves it for many newly discovered crimes, including more abuse of power. Then Speaker Pelosi can send the Articles of Impeachment over to the Senate for the trial.
The Impeachment trial would have priority over any other Senate business, and this could thwart McConnell's attempts to hold hearings and a vote on a Supreme Court nominee.
Whether the timing of sending the Articles of Impeachment is for before or after the November 3 election day, depends on McConnell's strategy. He may wish to wait until after November 3, for a lame-duck session, to therefore not endanger the re-election efforts of several key Republican Senators. (But approving a Supreme Court nominee in a lame duck session is even more un-democratic, but on-brand for the Republican party.)
In any event, we must continue to work for the election of Biden/Harris, and all Democratic party candidates in House, Senate, and state legislature campaigns.
