Republican senators reportedly may see one way to use impeachment to their advantage: engineering the Senate trial to screw over their Democratic colleagues running for president
The Senate's 2020 Democrats have emphasized their duty to put the trial ahead of their campaigning, and one advisor to a 2020 Senate Democrat told thethe campaign had already started to rearrange its schedule in anticipation of a trial. “I have constitutional responsibilities. I took an oath of office, as did everyone in Congress.
When to start the proceedings is one of a number of considerations that the Senate will grapple with in the run-up to a trial. Senators will have to vote on the rules for the impending trial before it begins, which will be passed with a majority vote instead of the two-thirds majority needed to remove Trump.
