In the weeks leading up to impeachment, an intriguing split developed between McConnell, with his quickie game plan, and Trump, who has expressed a desire to produce the trial as reality TV tailored for conspiracy theorists and Trump superfans.

Trump dared the House to impeach him “fast”, “so we can have a fair trial in the Senate,” with a parade of witnesses who would “reveal, for the first time, how corrupt our system really is.” The president’s draft witness list includes House intelligence chair Adam Schiff, House speaker Nancy Pelosi, Joe and Hunter Biden “and many more”.

In reply, Senate Democrats have proposed a witness list of their own, including former national security adviser John Bolton, acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney and two officials from the office of management and budget, all of whom the White House blocked from testifying previously.

House speaker Nancy Pelosi injected added uncertainty to the process on the night of Trump’s impeachment, by saying the House would wait to refer articles of impeachment to the Senate until the terms of the Senate trial were made clear.
