and McConnell is on board, at least conceptually:

Senator Mitch McConnell, the Republican leader, has told associates that he believes President Trump committed impeachable offenses and that he is pleased that Democrats are moving to impeach him, believing that it will make it easier to purge him from the party, according to people familiar with his thinking. The House is voting on Wednesday to formally charge Mr. Trump with inciting violence against the country.

In the late-evening, members of the chamber are expected to discuss asking Vice President Mike Pence to invoke the 25th amendment, which would remove Trump from office eight days ahead of President-Elect Joe Biden’s Inauguration Day.

A vote is scheduled to start Tuesday between 10:15 p.m. ET and 10:45 p.m. ET.

CNN says the 67 votes in the Senate to impeach are there. i was thinking there wasn't time before the inauguration but it occurs to me that if you could acquit him in a single day with no testimony, as i believe was the case last time, then you could convict him in the same manner.

Anyone know what actually happens if he gets impeached?

Does the police walk into the Whitehouse and escort him and his family off the grounds immediately, and then throw boxes of their stuff onto the drive way?

Does the secret service stop protecting him the moment he is off the grounds?

Does someone in the military have to stay up all night and change the launch codes?

At this point you know Pence, McConnell and other high ranking republicans facing re-election or aspirations for higher office want him to resign to save them the trouble of being on the record and voting either way. And he's likely going to hang on until the very end just to fck all of them over. It's glorious.

Will Trump be the only President ever to lose the popular vote twice AND be impeached twice?

Everyone is talking about it. It’s all over the internet.
But what about the library.

Does he still get one?
Will it be ran by beauty contestants?
Will the bathrooms be gilded in gold?

I have been thinking about the 'library' for some time, I think instead he'll opt for something that will be called "Trump-Land" and will have various chachki's for sale, made in China of course, with rides like the "Grifter Experience", "Mr. Trump's Wild Tax Avoidance Ride", "Pirates of the Bankruptcy"

It of course will be built on a drained swap.

the best thing to come out of this would be the righteous association of the Trump brand with terrorism - make the brand radioactive, with a half life of several generations.

I actually listened to a few of the R speeches, full of false comparison, whataboutisms, outright lies and completely hypocritical calls for unity. They are no better then the lowest trumptard.
