    Inciting insurrection is a crime. In addition to the prior crimes Trump has committed.

    Impeaching him takes away the potential defense of "I should have been impeached, if I did these crimes while I was POTUS."

    Potential jurors now are all aware that impeaching a criminal POTUS was an insufficient remedy. It didn't work. So jurors will be free to issue justice without pause.

    Today is probably the darkest day in American politics so far and because of today, it likely won’t be the darkest day in the near future.

    Awful anal-ysis as usual. Inciting insurrection may be a crime, but Trump didn't commit it. Nice try though. I'm not sure what other crimes you think he has committed, but I've seen no evidence of anything.

    Democrats couldn't secure enough seats from the Republicans in the Senate from the last mid-terms to the recent November elections...

    The outcome was decided before it got started.

    Yet, it had to be done to ensure Donald Trump proper placement in history and the let the world know more about had far American politics has fallen via only 7 or 8 Republicans citing guilty.

    Now its time to move on to the Covid-19 stimulus package and other important concerns. Hopefully this is not a green light for more attacks on the Capitol when people still think Trump can be President again (one of those criminal cases on the state level will nail him).

    He's a broken man...no fun in kicking something that's now road kill.

    That will be for a jury/judge to decide.

    There is prima facie evidence to proceed criminally.

    Only in a kangaroo court.

    There is Supreme Court precedent that Mr Trump's remarks are protected free speech. There is no case to be made except by vengeful idiots.

    We'll just have to see how the courts decide.

    BTW, how did those election fraud cases go? ... in the Supreme Court?

    Trump et al have won 2/3rds of the cases that have actually been heard. In addition, there are still cases pending at The Supreme Court and numerous states are beginning to work on perfecting their voting laws and logistics due to the irregularities. Looks like it's going pretty well.
