    "content": "is really what Senators say. Even without any evidence, we may look unreasonable, but when you convict on an impeachment, it does not matter whether there was sufficient evidence. This is because we are not sitting as a court of law; it is partly a political process, so long as there are proper articles of impeachment. At the end of the day, the decision as to whether there is sufficient evidence or the law has been complied with, it is a decision that is made on a very pragmatic basis by the Senators. In the USA, the Republican Party now supports President Trump quietly even when sometimes they do not agree with what he does. The Democrats could be going the other direction. What has been shown in the Senate is that we do not care about party positions during impeachment processes. Sometimes there seems to be some kind of unanimity and harmony between Members of the Select Committees in terms of the importance and the objectives of an impeachment process. With those few remarks, I thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
