Mark Halperin: McConnell might hold impeachment trial this month

Mark Halperin just broke what could be a huge story on The Michael Smerconish Program on SiriusXM. He claimed that sources have told him that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell might actually hold the impeachment trial this month, and not in the new year as everyone had expected.

You can listen here. If this is true — wow. Peak McConnell. What better way to demonstrate that impeachment is a joke than by dealing with it instantly? And how are we going to handle President Trump bragging for an entire year about having been impeached?
