    Yes. By Republicans saying not guilty, it was as if they were saying that petty drug dealers should be arrested and charged, but the big bad drug cartel boss must not be touched. Justice does not apply to Trump apparently... thanks Trumpublicans.

    I don’t think so now that the senate didn’t impeach him. If he would have been I would say yes.  He has too many supporters. The courts will look at that.

    Democrats need to stop with the insurrection claim.  It’s beginning to turn on them.  Kamala Harris bailing out rioters Which I didn’t realize until recently. These rioters bashed someone’s head open which can be considered an insurrection. Democrats have such a dangerous precedence with both of these impeachment trials end it has turned on them. She is an elected official which makes this constitutionally valid. I don’t agree with spite and hate but it has become a 2 Way St.

    Of course. The jury of Senate Republicans were unindicted co conspirators. They helped sell the Big Lie.

    Can you imagine Mike Pence testifying? How about his family? After that, he would have been convicted easily. 

    This is why they didn't want witnesses. The last thing on Earth they wanted was for Pence to testify while the tape of him and his family being led to safety.

    It would have been an exceptionally solid case. The principle contrast is that Trump might have been summoned, addressed, and interviewed. There are likewise many insurrectionists who have openly expressed they were following Trump's requests when they assaulted the Capitol. Their declaration would make this a close certain conviction on the off chance that it were in a court.

    No, I don't think he would have. The evidence only existed in the minds of the leftys

    It would have been a very strong case. The main difference is that Trump could have been subpoenaed, questioned, and cross-examined. There are also dozens of insurrectionists who have publicly stated they were following Trump's orders when they attacked the Capitol. Their testimony would make this a near-certain conviction if it were in a courtroom.

    Based on the case the House managers brought, in a real court the judge would have thrown this case out as being without merit and lacking evidence.
