(AP Photo\/Susan Walsh)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN Newsroom<br \/>\nUPDATED 7:51 AM PT \u2013 Tuesday, January 26, 2020<\/h5>\n<p>Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said the Senate will hold a timely and fair impeachment trial for President Trump. He issued that promise while speaking on the Senate floor.<\/p>\n<p>On Monday evening, the House sent over a single impeachment article charging President Trump with incitement of insurrection.<\/p>\n<p>Democrat and Republican leaders have agreed to delay the trial for two weeks, until February 8, to give the President\u2019s defense team time to prepare.<\/p>\n<p>Schumer said the process will continue despite some GOP lawmakers raising concerns about the constitutionality of the move.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe theory that the Senate can\u2019t try former officials would amount to a constitutional \u2018get out of jail free card\u2019 for any president who commits an impeachable offense,\u201d he stated. \u201cThe trial is going to happen, it is certainly and clearly constitutional and if the former president is convicted, there will be a vote to disqualify him from future office.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Joe Biden said he does not believe there will be enough GOP support to vote to convict President Trump. Democrats would need 17 Republican senators in order to move forward.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">I object to this unconstitutional sham of an \u201cimpeachment\u201d trial and I will force a vote on whether the Senate can hold a trial of a private citizen.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RandPaul\/status\/1353850609577959424?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 25, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/maricopa-county-ariz-voting-system-audit-latest\/\"> Maricopa County, Ariz. voting system audit latest<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sen.
