the Whole world has been following the long-awaited decision that the president of the UNITED states Donald Trump should be put in an rigsret.

the Potential is powerful. In the end can rigsretssagen allocate the president on charges of abuse of power.

But the whole process can end up as a storm in a glass of politically colored water.

It tells Joergen Albaek Jensen, a professor of public law and with a focus on rigsretssager in the UNITED states at the University of Aarhus.

"It looks like a show trial. There is no doubt what the outcome will be. I think it's also good that both the democrats and the republicans by," he says.

the Reason for that outcome is almost a foregone conclusion, personalised in Kentucky-senator Mitch McConnell. Elected from one of the strongest Trump states he will lead the republicans and thus the majority in the Senate.

According to a DR-portrait, he is known as the epitome of Washington D. C's power elite. A 'fearless and cynical magtpolitiker', which critics compared with the 'Darth Vader'.

It is this Trump-allies, to organise the rigsretssagen against the president. And he's not going to undermine his boss. It is very strange, assess Joergen Albaek Jensen.

"He has said that he will not be an impartial juror. What in itself is a ludicrous statement. If you take its task in accordance with the constitution seriously, one must at least hear what is being presented, and then take the position," he says.

the hardest of The accusation against Donald Trump is about the abuse of the office of the president. In a phone call with the Ukrainian president would Donald Trump have abused his power to push his eastern colleague to hand over the compromising material about Trumps potential opponent, democrat Joe Biden.

the Democrats are screaming that the process must interrogate the Donald Trumps former security adviser John Bolton, who worked for the president during the infamous phone call, which may or may not have overheard the conversation. Mitch McConnells colored approach to the process may mean that there will not be summoned the appropriate witnesses such as John Bolton to the interrogations in rigsretssagen.

another significant reason for the result can feel given in advance, is that it requires a two-thirds majority in the senate to depose the president in an impeachment.

Here, the democrats 47 seats, while the republicans have 53 seats.

"You know, that it is not possible to convert the 20 republicans in the senate to get a two-thirds majority and throw Trump out. In the best case it will turn itself on a few pieces," says Joergen Albaek Jensen.

the Democrats are starting to wonder at the tactics.

Mitch McConnell can't put the process in motion, before the democratic chairman of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, officially has handed down the case.

She has stated that she will not do it, before it is guaranteed to rigsretssagen will be impartial.

On the way, the democrats ' stalling tactics in trying to pressure the republicans and McConnell to summon key witnesses for questioning, as he has announced that he will not.

It explains Joergen Albaek Jensen.

Therefore, can easily go longer yet, before rigsretssagen can take its beginning.
