Let me briefly outline everything boring about Trump and impeachment in the first paragraph, and then it will be more fun.

After Biden's inauguration, the Senate, chaired by Kamala Harris and with a Republican majority, will vote for or against Trump's impeachment.

That, in fact, is all. 

A decision will be made - Trump will go down in history as the first US president to be impeached.

He will not - he will go down in history as the man whom the House of Representatives (this is half the battle) impeached twice (before him there were Andrew Johnson and Bill Stains On Clinton's Dress). 

The drama is clear.

It is interesting, for example, how many senators will betray their fellow party member Trump.

There were definitely more than ten of them in the House of Representatives, but 433 people voted on the list there.

There are only 100 people in the Senate, and the majority leader has already announced that he will vote for impeachment. 

I am not a political scientist, and certainly not a conspiracy theorist.

I will not guess on the coffee grounds about the consequences of all this confusion.

Let me just share my feelings: the United States - a country of great institutions, a powerful economy, declared equality in the realization of the American dream, freedom of the media and social networks, as well as interracial brotherhood - nearly broke down when a crowd of frustrated Republicans broke into the Capitol. 

Pay attention, I did not write anywhere: this is how bad they are, but we are good.

And I don’t think that the situation in the United States overshadows anything there.

Each of us draws our own conclusions.

My conclusion is simple: if the American establishment considers its political and civil organization to be a kind of standard, then it is time for them to visit the House of Weights and Measures. 

People who admit mistakes and try to be better are treated with sympathy.

This is the same modesty inherent in many, even very successful people.

And no one likes arrogance and moralizing.

Especially if your haughty mentor is an upstart and a cheat. 

And further.

Instability in the United States is as dangerous as instability in Russia.

Our powers have the potential to complete the history of mankind on this planet.

Each has deadly weapons and a full range of delivery vehicles.

This means that we are interested in the division in American society was bridged and we did not see another prequel to the movie "Escape from Los Angeles."

In the meantime, let's fix the time on the American clock: the establishment betrayed its Supreme Commander-in-Chief, the IT people sealed his mouth with duct tape (in fact - forever), there is no equality of rights and freedom of speech, and the senators will soon fulfill (or not) the ancient tragedy about the murder of their Caesar.

But you know what's the funniest thing?

That he will no longer be Caesar by this time.

This is how idiocy turns tragedy into a farce.
