    Yup, but they need 60 to get any of the procedures done.

      They need a majority in the House to impeach, and a supermajority of 2/3 in the Senate for removal. That’s a total of 20 Republicans; 6 in the House, and 14 in the Senate.

        Yup, but before they can get to the vote of 67 to remove, there’s a bunch of administrivia which will require 60, and they don’t have that either.
