REPORT ABUSIVE REPLY
Message Subject GOP Can't Gain Enough Votes to Dismiss Impeachment Trial

A trial needs to happen for the acquittal. No felonies. No crimes has been committed. Not even a misdeamenor. The acquittal means this impeachment gets put to rest, and can never be brought back.

However, a dismissal will dismiss the articles. But can be brought back later when the dems claim they have more evidence, and will keep going and going, and spillover to Trumps next term.

Bring on the trial!
 Quoting: TheBatman U.J.L.A.


"When Jeopardy Ends in Favor of the Defendant

Once jeopardy has attached and the defendant is found innocent, the government can't detain them for additional court proceedings on the same issue. Jeopardy therefore “ends” at the following exonerating stages:

After a jury’s verdict of acquittal;
After a trial court judge grants a dismissal, unless the judge abused their discretion;
After a successful post-conviction appeal; or
After a mistrial (only if the judge dismisses the case)."
