Retired Harvard law school professor, Alan Dershowitz, who defended Prez Trump last year 2020 first Senate impeachment, statement: "This is political theater, i'm neither a politician or an actor---don't see a role for a real lawyer to play this show trial". Again, I, RVL, said to weigh what all other Ivy College law school professors DISAGREE with Alan Dershowitz on Senate Impeachment Trial for Prez Trump after his term ends. Don't let Prez Trump get away with "Get a FREE jail (Monopoly game card) unpunishable criminal acts to breach the impeachable US Constitutional for "abuse of power and obstruction of Congress in connection with the Trump–Ukraine scandal (1st impeachment/acquitted two counts on Senate trial, 2/5/2020)" and "incitement of insurrection in connection of attempted to overturn 2020 presidential election, fed his lies claiming of election fraud, and efforts to pressure Georgia election officials to overturn GA senator runoff election" (2nd impeachment) charge.

Would a conviction automatically do that? Answer: Conviction wouldn't automatically do that. There's pretty clear precedent that there are two separate questions. That is conviction and removal for office and then subsequently a disqualification vote. The standard for a conviction is a two-thirds majority. That's specified by the Constitution. The practice has been to treat the disqualification vote as a majority vote, but those are two different decisions that have to be made by the Senate.
