I see it as a recognition that Thune wouldn’t even hold a trial, a precedent set by Mitch McConnell. Impeachment has been proven to be a dead letter. We won’t vote him out, and impeachment of the president has never led to removal. Only the 25th remains untried.

The 25th requires 2/3rds in the house and senate to permanently remove. If you have those numbers you can impeach; if you don't, 25A won't work

I don’t think it would be likely to succeed, but the public debate would be different since it’s about health and mental capacity rather than shaking down election officials.
