It's not his personal authority or ability that they can engineer this situation, Boru, but the ability of the GOP in majority in the senate to..yes, recognize the trial, but restrict it so that this recognition is...effectively...all that ever comes of it.
I don't think that a secret ballot would help. Every rep would then be suspected as a maga-traitor by their base, and they know that. It's more important to be seen supporting trump than it is to be able to throw him under the bus in secrecy. I think that they're too deep into this, and that just as for the president, the only way out is through. That's why they've been plowing through one crime by committing another, and another, and another, and another.
