I believe that is an entirely poor course. Trump openly states such. He wants a trial and the Republicans want a trial, public, open. It is going to HURT them badly if they didn't wait. Now they can drag this out real nice and slow in a way that's very painful to Democrats. They can do exactly what the Democrats did and then some. They can call Democrats off the campaign trail including Biden, Bernie, and Warren, they can tear into Biden in a way they couldn't without the trial, they can work in and acquit loud and clear, not just some clear partisanship like the Democrats did but make it very obvious and blatant.
Trump isn't getting removed even by the swampiest of swamp Republicans. After 2018 they fell in line, unified, and realized this platform as the correct one to keep office. Career politicians will do what keeps them in office, and right now they are exclusively benefited by pushing Trump up.
Rand Paul also is saying he wants this dragged out into a real proper damaging system.
You don't understand how the game of politics is played if you want Trump acquitted this instant. He's already had the impeachment articles sent on him, why not use it as a weapon? Even fucking Mit Romney has stated he intends to vote against impeachment. Trump isn't getting booted, it's political suicide for a Republican to vote to impeach and they know it, but they can use it as a weapon. This is what McConnel is good at, procedure.
They are showing the strength of their hand against Donald Trump now that Articles have been.handed to the Senate. Both parties and the deep state are trying to figure out a way to protect themselves after they have impeached Trump out of office. Right now, there are too many beds that need feathering in their coalition of corruption and these incompetent assholes are bungling their way towards peasant revolts (that is us) against the technocratic police state they will replace our government with once Trump is gone.
Pence is likely still holding out to let the prez finish his first term.
12 crooked Republicans in the Senate can use the cudgel of impeachment to destroy the America First policies of Trump.
They're showing weakness now. They have received the articles and haven't dismissed this immediately. They're waiting for nothing.
I would rather see both sides giving their opening arguments, then vote to aquit. Done in a couple days and Trump is aquitted. Justice served.

Bullshit, Trump should have been acquitted by now.
Trump is openly saying he wants a trial.
Rand Paul also is saying he wants this dragged out into a real proper damaging system.

Openly wants a trial?????
Here is a Trump tweet from THIS MORNING:
“There is no crime here. Entertaining this Impeachment is a joke. This whole thing should be dismissed.” @IngrahamAngle @FoxNews

Not game-set-match, but pretty damn close.
