The impeached are tried hereThe Senate is the body that tries and decides every impeachment case brought to it by the House of Representatives. As we saw in the Estrada and Corona impeachment trials, all the senators sit at the Senate impeachment court as senator-judges. It would give the defense a perfect excuse to demand the recusal of all the senator-judges, and the instant dissolution of the Senate impeachment court. The social media became the latest player in the 2016 presidential elections, and in the DU30 presidency until now. But it’s one of the questions a reckless judge might ask him in a Senate impeachment trial.
