57. The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments.

Tue Aug 30, 2022, 05:58 PM

Aug 2022

When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried the Chief Justice shall preside; And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present.

If the GQP Senate could have avoided Trump Impeachment 1.0, don't you think they would have?
