Trial memorandum of Donald J. Trump, the 45th president of the United States of America
by Joseph Earnest February 8, 2021
Newscast Media WASHINGTON, D.C.—Former President Donald Trump's impeachment trial begins Tuesday, and while an acquittal is almost certain as 17 Republicans would have to join all Democrats in voting to convict, testimony will be presented in the upper chamber seeking to prove Trump's role in the alleged "incitement of insurrection" in the Jan. 6 Capitol breach.
Trump's lawyers have said they will argue that the impeachment trial is unconstitutional because Trump no longer holds office, and will say that his speech was protected under the First Amendment. Here's Trump's response.
Attorney David Schoen and Bruce Castor, a former District Attorney in Pennsylvania, are heading up Trump's legal defense team.
