Thats not necessarily where were headed. The constitution says virtually nothing about the process saying the senate will conduct the trial with the chief justice presiding and a twothirds vote necessary. There are written rules. Fewer than ten pages. They are remarkably vague on substance and havent seen much change since president johnsons impeachment in 1868. So much remains to be worked out between Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell and minority leader chuck schumer.
