The Senate cannot hold President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial until the House turns over articles of impeachment, said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).
“Their turn is over. They’ve done enough damage. It’s the Senate’s turn now to render sober judgment as the framers envisioned. But we can’t hold the trial without the articles,” said McConnell on the floor of the Senate on Friday. “So, for now, we are content to continue the ordinary business of the Senate while House Democrats continue to flounder.”
