Trump begins one day after Senate impeachment
Trump’s “impeachment hearing against former president is unconstitutional”

[앵커]

With the Senate impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump scheduled to begin tomorrow, it looks likely to end early.

Trump’s attorneys insisted that the former president’s impeachment hearing was unconstitutional, and President Joe Biden indicated that the Senate would not actively participate, saying it was something to be resolved.

This is a report from the Washington correspondent, Taewook Kang.

The second Senate impeachment for former President Trump begins a day later.

He is accused of instigating a civil war by encouraging the uprising of the Capitol in speeches to supporters last month 6 while in office.

[척 슈머 / 미국 민주당 상원 원내대표 : 모든 진실이 밝혀지고 진실이 밝혀지면 책임을 지도록 해야 합니다. 그것이 이번 심판의 목표입니다.]

Trump’s lawyers argued that the hearings against the retired former president were against the constitution.

In addition, he emphasized that the speech on the 6th of last month was within the scope of free speech under the First Amendment and was not subject to impeachment.

As such, they demanded immediate dismissal.

President Biden has indicated that he will be one step away.

Let the Senate figure it out.

[조 바이든 / 미국 대통령 : 그(트럼프)는 나와서 증언해 달라는 제의를 받았습니다. 그는 하지 않기로 했습니다. 상원에서 해결하도록 놔둡시다.]

The Democratic Party has an urgent need to address other issues like Corona 19’s response budget and the ministers’ approval hearing.

The Republican Party is burdened by pressure to publicize the riot on Capitol Hill again.

As such, Senate sentiment, which took about three weeks last year, is expected to clear up early this time within a week.

The fact that it is difficult to fill the two-thirds quorum and that there is a high possibility of rejection also contributes to early termination.

Yet the Democratic Party appears to be focused on achieving its purpose by inflicting political damage on former President Trump by banning future elections for public office with a majority vote in addition to impeachment.
