Quoting

I believe he is undermining the very foundations of our government. Depending on the precise definition of war regarding this law, the actions could be treason if intentional. I’m open to you defining the term of levying war. Given today’s society I would believe it would include subversive acts such as it appears trump is guilty of. Of course this could be ignorant disregard for our government on his part and his foolish flailing could result in an optically similar situation which would mean he’s an idiot but not guilty of treason.
But again you either misunderstand my statement or are (unlikely) intentionally altering it. I said nothing about the voting itself. The acts I speak of are the intentional placement of rules, which the senate has sole authority to do, to create a situation where you couldn’t convict a mole of digging a hole if you stood there and watched it. It is a premeditated act (since it’s already been proposed) to intentionally create a finding of not guilty regardless of the charge and facts presented. To suggest such an action without even reading the articles of impeachment show a lack of intent to fulfill their duties as a US senator. It would intentionally be ignoring the possible crimes put forth in the articles of impeachment. The voting is simply a result of the premeditated action of creating rules that make it impossible to convict.
