The first-ever impeachment trial of an ex-President is now underway. The issue of whether the proceeding is constitutional will be front and center.

Analysis from CNN’s Maeve Reston and Kevin LiptakFor weeks, while advancing the false claims that the presidential election was rigged and mired in fraud, then-President Trump had whipped up excitement about the Jan. 6 certification of the 2020 presidential results, inviting his supporters to descend on Washington, promising it would be"wild."

Inciting the crowd with an address threaded with lies — including that"the states got defrauded" in the election and"want to revote" — Trump stirred anger toward his vice president, telling the crowd once again that he hoped Pence would"do the right thing" -- pressuring him to toss out the election results, which would have been illegal and beyond the bounds of his constitutional authority.

But as his supporters marched down Pennsylvania Avenue and began their assault on the Capitol, Trump had returned to the White House consumed with his schemes for overriding an election that he lost with 232 electoral votes to Biden's 306. Trump did not even attempt to secure the safety of Pence, even though several of his supporters who were part of the violent mob were heard shouting"Where's?" in the midst of their Capitol rampage. Those threats alarmed Pence and his family, a source close to the vice president told CNN's Jim Acosta, widening the breach between the President and Vice President.

GOP is about to set an example that’ll have devastating effects on 3rd World by not holding Trump accountable to the Capitol violence. Only the third world dictators will use rogue soldiers instead of Senators! Recently Uganda’s Museveni did that with impunity and many will

Breaking news: Elon Musk is behind EWT project. this youtuber reveal the truth.

The issue of whether or not it is Constitutional was voted on already. That's what the 55-45 vote was a couple weeks ago. Resigned officials have been impeached before and the Senate voted, AGAIN, that they would try an impeached official that was not in office.

That what cnn wants fake News network. I miss Larry King may his soul rest in peace.

So, if it's unconstitutional, it's to say that as long as the sitting president commits an impeachable offense like inciting an insurrection, just before leaving office, making it impossible to hold him to account before he becomes an ex-Prez, then he gets away with it scotfree.

Here's a video about that stupid 'documentary' Absolute Proof. throw me a subscribe on YouTube and follow on Twitter. I makes a lot of video like this.

Honestly as a former Trump supporter I was enjoying not hearing about him 24/7 for the past week. Please continue that and don’t start blaring the impeachment.

A convincing argument can be made that when Donald Trump bleated and screeted about how the Democrats were stealing the election from him, he damn well knew it was false. Of course, we knew that Trump knew he was lying. But now we have proof.

- You can't impeach someone who is no longer President. My God this is a damn witch hunt.This is absolutely ridiculous.Expect nothing.They just want to make Biden look like a saint compared to Trump.They can't get a stimulus package out,but they sure can waist money on this crap.
