Alright, the basic point of divergence here is that Nixon stubbornly refuses to resign. President Nixon is duly impeached by the House, and the second Senate Trial of an American President is set to begin. When would said trial take place and how long would it have lasted? What would be the dynamics of the trial? I tend to think conviction is a near certainty, but what would the actual margins be? Generally speaking, I'm interested to know what the Senate Trial of President Nixon actually would have looked like? And furthermore, what is the longer reaching impact of this outcome of the Watergate scandal?
