The Senate trial of Donald J.

Trump kicked off on Tuesday.

He's the first president to ever be impeached twice and the Onley former president to face a Senate trial.

Trump is charged with inciting the deadly insurrection at the US Capitol last month that sent the very lawmakers who will judge his guilt or innocents fleeing for safety.

特朗普被控上個月在美國國會大廈煽動致命的叛亂，這讓那些將判斷他有罪或無辜的立法者逃離安全。

Lead House impeachment manager Democratic lawmaker Jamie Raskin immediately set the tone.

率先眾議院彈劾經理民主黨議員傑米-拉斯金立即確定了基調。

You will not be hearing extended lectures for me because our case is based on cold, hard fax, fax Rask and then tried to illustrate using 13 minutes of dramatic video now, including snippets of Trump's speech on January 6th.

你不會聽到我的延伸講座，因為我們的案例是基於冷硬的傳真，傳真拉斯克，然後試圖使用13分鐘的戲劇性視頻來說明現在，包括1月6日特朗普演講的片段。

Because you'll never take back our country with weakness, you have to show strength and you have to be strong.

因為你永遠不會用弱小的力量來奪回我們的國家，你必須要表現出實力，你必須要強大。

And a video montage showing Trump supporters storming the Capitol and clashing with police, all in an effort to draw a direct connection between Trump's words and his supporters rampage on the capital.

而一段視頻蒙太奇顯示，特朗普的支持者衝進國會大廈，並與警察發生衝突，這一切都在試圖將特朗普的話和他的支持者在首都的狂暴行為直接聯繫起來。

Trump's lawyers and most Republican senators have challenged the constitutionality of the trial.

特朗普的律師和大多數共和黨參議員都對審判的合憲性提出質疑。

They have said the Senate does not have the authority to hear the case because Trump has already left office and cannot be removed.

他們表示，參議院無權審理此案，因為特朗普已經卸任，不能被撤職。

Democrats argue that would set a dangerous precedent.

The object of the Constitution has been achieved.

A two thirds majority of the 100 member Senate would have to support the charge to convict Trump, meaning 17 Republicans.

We need to join all 50 Democrats and backing it.
