Only 6 Republicans were needed to convict, which is why Nixon resigned. Today there are 47 Democrats -- it would take 20 republicans to convict.
And what about Vance? You think he's going to be forced out too? And are you okay with President Mike Johnson?

Comparisons to the Nixon impeachment and resignation are inapposite in the extreme.
