WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said on Sunday that former President Donald Trump's approaching second impeachment trial in the Senate will be fair but move at a relatively fast pace.

"It will be a fair trial but it will move relatively quickly," Schumer, a Democrat, told a news conference in New York. He said it should not take up too much time because "we have so much else to do."

Latest comments

The commentators keep talking about election fraud yet 32 different courts. including the Supreme court (twice) threw the cases out for lack and in many cases no evidence. Saying there was voter fraud doesn't mean voter fraud occurred. You uneducated trump supporters need to move on.
It is time to remove all politicians who took part in the fake election results fraud perpetuated on the vulnerable and weak of mind Trump acolytes. May Jesus Christ enlighten them.
It is time to remove all politicians in both Houses of CONGRESS that did not ask for an inquiry into the FRAUDULENT ELECTIONS. Both houses are responsible for the "peaceful protest" on January 6. Had they investigated, there would have been none. Most in Congress are politicians; not POLITICAL LEADERS.
you should repent of your hateful heart.
I don't understand why you believe their was fraud. Maybe you think only white votes should count.
Tour right that was a crazy the statues being brought down and all those poor people that were robbed and tear gased
The Senate and House failed Americans by not requiring an investigation into Election Fraud. I did not think this until I read the 270 pages of Sidney Powell. The Most Important jobs that Congress have are -Uniform Election Reform-Removal of Section 230. Without FAIR ELECTIONS and FREEDOM of SPEECH; America is Doomed. Dominion should be banned in America because of their use of foreign servers and Vote fixing
Individual states already investigated. The recounts that were done used the paper ballots, so these false claims about Dominion have been completely debunked. There was no vote fixing. Sidney Powell is a crackpot (or maybe I should say "krakkenpot"). There is a reason that Giuliani's crazy team kicked her out.
They better give Trump’s lawyers ample opportunity to expose the election fraud for all American to see.
Wolverex, sure. That's why more than 50 courts, many with Republican and even Trump-appointed judges, as well as the Supreme Court, threw out Trump's claims as meritless. And that's why even Republican states all certified their election results. That's why 3 recounts, including the original paper ballots, overseen by Republican leadership, still resulted in Biden winning, in Georgia. It's time detoxify from too much Trump Kool-aid and face reality.
you are being disingenuous or at best disinformed. The cases weren’t thrown oit as meritless. They were thrown out based on lack of standing or on laches. The merits of the case were never given a fair trial.
you seem to “know” only what the CCP/DNC state run propaganda outlets have told you.
