Per Sahil Kapur on X: “Should Bob Menendez be expelled from the Senate if he’s convicted?

The GOP & Dem leaders both dodge.

“I'm really glad he’s not a Republican,” McConnell tells @burgessev.

“He’s on trial so I'm not going to comment,” Schumer tells @JulieNBCNews.”

GovTrack Note: Conviction does not preclude continuing to serve from jail though there would be practical limitations. Menendez couldn’t vote for example. He either has to resign or be expelled.

@GovTrack convicted? He should be expelled right now.

@GovTrack If Menendez were a Republican, he wouldn't be on trial.

@lydialurch I don’t know why you say that. The last three legislators convicted or who pleaded guilty were Republican House members.
