An adviser who worked for former President George W. Bush and failed presidential candidates John McCain and Jeb Bush—all Republicans—is among those pushing for a secret vote in the Senate that would remove President Donald Trump from office if the House votes to impeach him.
The GOP holds a 53-47 majority in the Senate and a vote to convict Trump, removing him from office, requires “concurrence of two-thirds of the members present,” according to the U.S. Constitution.
