Former President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial begins Tuesday. What’s at stake here and what are Trump’s lawyers planning for his defense? Trump’s lawyers say the trial is an attack on free speech. They say if Trump’s guilty of violent rhetoric then some Democrats are too, pointing to the riots over the summer.
A new report found of the 22 cases that have been heard by the courts and decided on their merits, Trump and Republicans have prevailed in 15. This means Trump has won two-thirds of the cases fully adjudicated by the courts.
