[...]111: “Witch hunt!” may be President Donald Trump’s favourite way to describe the impeachment proceedings, but that is far from his only colourful disparagement. 2: “A COUP,” he protested in October. 3: His defenders have chipped in, calling the process a “Star Chamber”, a “show-trial”, “Soviet-style” and a “circus”. 4: Then there is the ultimate inflammatory comparison: Mr Trump says he is the victim of a “lynching”.

[...]111:“政治迫害!“这可能是唐纳德·特朗普总统描述弹劾程序的最喜欢的方式，但这远远不是他唯一的花式贬损。2:“一场政变，”他在10月抗议道。3:他的辩护人插话，称这个过程是“星际室”、“作秀审判”、“苏联式”和“马戏团”。4:还有一个极端煽动性的比较：特朗普说他是“私刑”的受害者。

[...]111:Impeachment is a political process as much as a legal one—and it duly involves two linguistic struggles, one rhetorical and the other legalistic, waged simultaneously and overlapping.2:Mr Trump and his allies have concentrated on the rhetorical task, generating a stream of emotionally charged images and comparisons designed to convince his supporters that the process is unfair—the better to keep their representatives in line.3:So long as Republican senators hold their ranks, Mr Trump will ultimately be acquitted.

[...]111: Such is the nature of the process, however, that, as the accusers, congressional Democrats faced another, very different challenge: while pressing their political case, they also had to hone specific charges for the articles of impeachment .2:Two that they considered, “extortion” and “bribery”, both had disadvantages.3:One was that they are contradictory; extortion involves putting a squeeze on a victim, while bribery is more consensual.4:The second drawback was that both are federal crimes.5:Politically, if not in law (since the Senate is not a courtroom), pursuing either would have led to demands that they should be proven to the standard of a criminal prosecution.6:Failure might have undermined the case.
