Note the part where it says "party convicted" Impeachment is the predecessor for a trial in the senate which does have penalties if convicted. Trump was not convicted. I am mystified at your lack of reading comprehension.ConsRule » 03 Aug 2023, 7:18 pm » wrote: ↑ Your own post states Trump can still be tried, judged and punished. If a person can be convicted and still be tried, obviously double jeopardy is not-applicable. Besides, the 5th Amendment statement related to double jeopardy clearly states criminal. Impeachment is NOT a criminal process, it is a political process.
