This is a trick emanating from democratic strategist law professor Noah Feldman. Do not fall for it. The purpose is to lull McConnell into a slow walk of the process while the democrats fishing expeditions court cases wind their way through the courts. Trump was impeached. Now the Senate can acquit or dismiss right away. Do not delay.
Trump was NOT impeached. Not until the impeachment papers get to McConnell and the senate.
It’s like a district attorney who gets a case after investigations of a perpetrator, and holds the case and doesn’t send it to court for a trial. No case in court, no trial, no indictment.
