    "But...But...Clinton..." :roflol:

    Sounds like Fun...Can I play?

    The vote in 1868 was 35-19.

    Acquitted by 1 Vote...

    Historically, the chances of a President (regardless of what the "crime") being Convicted and Removed is ZERO.

    "But...But...Andrew Johnson..." :flagus:

    NOBODY actually expects Trump to be Convicted. (Regardless).

    He could commit a Capital Felony on Live TV and Still be Acquitted.

    McConnell won"t allow a Conviction to happen.:flagus:

    It is what it is.:smh:

    Always fun pointing out your hypocrisy.

    So this is just a political show, right?

    Exactly.

    Just like the Show Trial of Bill Clinton (who was impeached by a Partisan GOP House and then Acquitted).

    That said, even a Show Trial will yield many.moments of High Comedy and Political Theater.

    So, I am in favor of it (if only for the "Carniva!" Atmosphere) .

    We're governing by political theater now? Maybe *this* and not Trump necessarily is why we're losing respect.
