Trump was impeached. He will be acquitted in the Senate.
The only remaining questions are
- Will his impeachment humble him or his acquittal empower him?
- Will the Online Left react with anything approaching perspective when he's acquitted, or will they rail against Democrats for...Republicans acquitting him?
- Will there be any repercussions of this - beyond the judgment of history - in November?
- Will the Senate trial be anything more than a pro forma show trial?
- And will that matter?
For that matter, does any of this matter in terms of real world power arrangements? Pelosi's reluctance to impeach was based on knowing these outcomes. She's usually a few steps ahead of her critics in understanding what will happen, so let's see if her reluctance was warranted.
