Mira Clayton · Answer 1

False because most of them ain't voting that person to be sentenced for what they did

Rebecca Davies · Answer 2

True

Explanation:

The Constitution requires a two-thirds vote of the Senate to convict, and the penalty for an impeached official upon conviction is removal from office. In some cases, the Senate has also disqualified such officials from holding public offices in the future. There is no appeal. Since 1789, about half of Senate impeachment trials have resulted in conviction and removal from office.
