Same reason a Scottish independence referendum would absolutely need Westminster backing before it could legitimately go ahead. The last poll I saw the majority of people polled were against independence.

Him being able to run again might or might not be a good thing for Republicans. They've lost the senate and both houses and I suspect there is a good deal that will come out about Trumps actions in office when he leaves office. Either way - much like Trump, the Republican party will do whatever is in their own best interest.

The main reason part of Catalonia wants to be independant is because they are richer than the rest of the country and they don't want to share, end of the story. Do not forget that one of EU pillars of EU, one of its foundations are solidarity and unity; sharing with the ones that are needed. And that is basically why they don't have any real supporters in Europe.

There’s no way two thirds of senate are going to vote to make Trump ineligible to run for public office when so many of them are potentially going to be reliant on the support of his followers for re-election in two years. Trump is a gravy train for fundraising. If it happens I will buy Venjur 100 bottles of whiskey

If impeachment papers go to the senate quickly enough what might happen is that McConnell will tell Trump to resign. Given that Fox news and many republicans are saying that the riots were antifa in disguise I think it's more likely they will try and BS their way out of it all, but the death of a police officer makes things more consequential. It's being reported that Giuliani is potentially in trouble for partly inciting the capital riot and that Trumps statement yesterday was a pre-emptive move as he may be in the same boat. I still suspect that nothing will happen through to the 20th bar Trump maybe being a bit quieter on social media.

It’d rule Trump out of ever running again. He’s going nowhere I’d say EDIT: I’d say the only way the 25th happens is if Pemce agrees to Pardon Trump and then immediately reinstate him!
