Is it wise? Will a trial of a former president, of a private citizen, will it heal? Will it unify? I think the answer is clearly it will not. A trial of a former president is simply vindictive.

So again, the question when we vote on this in a couple of hours for every senator, should be, is it wise? (02:04–02:16)
