5 paragraphs in, and it's obviously a left leaning media publication.
The interpretations are ludicrous.


National Review is left leaning?

Glot this is absurd.

National Review is respected even by the hardest core libertarians.

I certainly respect them. They are the Intellectual Right. It is no wonder Glot has never heard of them.

The five stages of grief are:

denial <-- You are here :(
anger
bargaining
depression
acceptance

It is important to note that the stages are not linear and you can go back and forth.

I'd argue that it's bargaining.

I read there's a legal scholar out there making the same claim, that until the articles of impeachment are presented to the Senate, Trump can claim he hasn't been impeached yet.

"The House of Representatives shall chuse their Speaker and other Officers; and shall have the sole Power of Impeachment."

"The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present.

Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law."

It would seem that unless the senate is given the ability to try the impeachment there can't be one, since they have the power to try all impeachments.

Allow me to rephrase... a left leaning publicist. It's clearly an opinion piece by the... editor.

Or... how to put this more delicately... the entire article is BS.
