The Senate impeachment trial of Donald Trump\\u2014the sequel\\u2014gets underway this week when the House impeachment managers and Trump\'s new defense team spar on the Senate floor under the gavel of Senator Patrick Leahy. What should we expect from this second round of impeachment trial? For a preview, Benjamin Wittes sat down with Molly Reynolds, Lawfare\'s congressional guru and a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution; Lawfare\'s managing editor Quinta Jurecic; and Lawfare\'s chief operating officer David Priess. They talked about what rules are going to apply this time and whether they will be different from the last time around, whether there will be witnesses, what will be different with Senator Leahy presiding, how the president is likely to present his defense and how he might scuttle his lawyers\' efforts.
