A Tuesday vote in the Senate ruled that the second impeachment of Donald Trump is constitutional, even though this is the first time in US history that a former president is on trial for impeachment.
The vote saw all Democrats voting yes, and revealed six Republican senators crossing party lines in their support of the constitutionality of Trump’s second impeachment in the Senate.
The six supporters of the constitutionality of the impeachment are Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Mitt Romney of Utah, Ben Sasse of Nebraska and Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, who voiced their intention to back the impeachment in the test vote, joined by Bill Cassidy of Louisiana.
