Everyone is a lot more confident than me that this is smart politics; I think Republicans do not politically have the option of purging Trump, ever, as long as he is alive, and maybe longerhttps://twitter.com/jmartNYT/status/1349107100593647621 …

Yes, he's unpopular and divisive, but I'm not sure what you do about the literal millions of GOP voters for whom any move against him irrevocably aligns you with the pedophile deep state and renders further participation in democracy useless

Nothing is real until it happens. Determination, not hope. But also: contact your representatives, both parties and shout. Even if removal fails (and it pretty clearly will), every vote in favor matters for the tone it sets.

Oh well of course I want it to *happen*. I'm talking specifically about whether McConnell would be right to calculate that his party can decisively rid themselves of Trump at this stage just by passing some legislation.

I think at this point, I suspect the calculation is 'open war is upon you, whether you would wish it or not.' Had the mob gotten to the Senate, I doubt they would have been any kinder to McConnell than any democrats; he was as much against overturning the election as they were.
