                                        I don't know it's never been tested in the SCOTUS - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 2/10 11:49:45
                                             So you have to wait for SCOTUS - meatiger MU - 2/10 11:51:37
                                                  No I have my own opinion but it isn't biding - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 2/10 11:53:41

                                                                 Which leads to an absurd result that a Senate could delay - TigerJackSwartz MU - 2/10 11:58:56
                                                                      Constitutionally maybe? After all they have the SOLE power - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 2/10 12:01:30
                              No, it explicitly provides a remedy in addition to removal - DHighlander NWMSU - 2/10 11:43:45
