Articles Of Impeachment Arrived In The Senate. The Trial Comes Next.

The Senate trial for President Trump's impeachment has been initiated with the articles sent to the Senate. The House delayed this step to understand Senate rules, which Senate Majority Leader McConnell said would follow Clinton's impeachment precedent. The trial will involve setting rules for proceedings, and the White House is confident of acquittal, dismissing the articles as weak. The trial is expected to last two weeks, potentially longer if witnesses are called.
