Sen. Portman should vote to convict and remove President Trump from office
Updated Jan 17, 2021;
The Senate will soon be called upon to sit as jurors in President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial. I hope that, when the time comes, Sen. Rob Portman will vote to convict the president. While he may question the need for conviction because Trump will soon be out of office, a conviction is necessary to prevent him from running for president again or holding any other federal office. Additionally, a conviction while he is still in office would prevent Trump from receiving costly taxpayer benefits when out of office that he doesn’t deserve.
