It is a constitutionally tricky proposition, but might be a compromise for some Senators.
For which Senators? Certainly not for Trump supporting Senators? I think they are full tilt exoneration jurors. So there is no chance of getting the requisite number of Republicans to convict. O and the very thought of never filling an office in the future is the equivalent of death sentence for a Trump supporter. To silence the voice of their bigotry ... their anger ... their delusions ... will never fly.

But thanks for the flight of fancy. It is an intriguing idea. In the real world a push for censure is far more likely. All Republicans could live with the idea, they didn't like what he did and would lie to protect him, but if they could come close to doing the right thing, they may vote for censure.

Should Bolton testify, he almost certainly would say Mr Trump violated his oath of office i.e. abused the public's trust. Would that be enough to change minds or would Republicans continue to lie?


ignorance is the enemy
without equality there is no liberty
America can survive bad policy, but not destruction of our Democratic institutions
