Has anyone ever considered the precedent (no pun intended) that the former president’s arguments are setting? Look at it like this, “After I embezzled the money, the company fired me, so you cannot give me any criminal consequences because I no longer work for the company.” You could even state, “After I killed the man, I no longer worked for his company, so I can’t have any legal repercussions because he was no longer my employer!” This is what criminals all over the world will be arguing, and there isn’t a judge in America who will be able to counteract it because the Senate trial of the former president is the highest court. Can the Supreme Court counteract if the senators decide to acquit?
An impeachment isn’t a regular trial like one conducted in a court of law, so the same rules don’t apply to both. I wouldn’t think a precedent set in one would necessarily apply to the other.
As far as the supreme court goes, I bet if donnie “I take no responsibility at all” trump was somehow ‘convicted’ by 2/3 of the Senate, he would fight like hell to find a way to have the SCOTUS decide his fate.
