Senate Trial has started.

Democrats also messed up by not calling in witnesses. I mean just compare Clinton's blowjob trial which lasted over a month, and this that was less than a week.

But the Washington DC Attorney General let it be known last night that he’s looking to criminally charge Trump for the insurrection. That could be much more important than impeachment.

Only if there are 12 Democrats on the jury.

Odds are you will get at least one dyed in the wool ( R ) who would delight in simply pissing off the ( D )s.

Prosecutors WISH they only had to make that easy 2/3 majority that is needed in the Senate.

Actually, the 'odds' are just the opposite. While political affiliation doesn't de jure prevent someone sitting on a jury, it absolutely de facto does.  The  odds of finding a Trump-sympathizing juror in DC are about 18 to 1 against.

Of course, his lawyers could argue that Trump can't get a fair trial in DC, but this would  put them in the charmingly embarrassing position of having to admit that the DC vote was valid.
