Impeachment of Trump will provoke blows to Democrats
The US Democratic Party is not abandoning hopes of impeaching former US President Donald Trump in order to deprive him of the right to run for this post in the future.
Izvestia writes about this, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
At the same time, according to the head of the American University in Moscow, Eduard Lozansky, approximately half of the country did not vote for the new US President Joe Biden, and many of these people believe that the elections were rigged.
“Biden has a good chance to unite the United States by asking Senate Democrats not to vote to impeach Trump. But will he find the courage and strategic vision to do so? There is no certainty about this,” Lozansky said.
He added that the outcome of the Senate impeachment vote will depend on whether Democrats can win over the 17 Republicans they are short on.
In turn, the director of the Institute of the USA and Canada of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Valery Garbuzov, believes that the story of impeachment is a double-edged sword.
“On the one hand, the purpose of impeachment after the president leaves is to neutralize him forever. On the other hand, if impeachment passes and succeeds, it will cause a response from Republicans. Some of them will group and strike at the Democrats. The concentration of political rejection at one end of the spectrum immediately gives rise to a response,” Garbuzov emphasized.
According to him, if Donald Trump decides to create his own party, it will consist of those whom he manages to tear away from the Republicans. And although she will not have great prospects, it will split the conservative electorate. In the end, the Democrats will only benefit from this, the expert is sure.
As PolitNavigator reported, the lower house of the US Congress adopted a resolution at gunpoint about Trump's impeachment.
