"As you may know, removing a president from office involves two major steps in Congress. First, the House of Representatives must vote on whether there is enough evidence to bring a president to trial before the Senate. This step is called impeachment. Next, the Senate must vote on whether to remove the president from office, or not.

"As you may know, the House has now impeached Trump and the case has been sent to the Senate for trial. As of now, do you think the Senate should vote to convict Trump and remove him from office, or do you think the Senate should vote against conviction and removal?"
