Since Trump's acquittal is assured, I'm curious what would happen in the opposite scenario? Is a prez immediately out of office and stripped of all powers once 67+ senators vote to convict? The moment the Chief Justice puts down the gavel? Not really comparable, but after the 2003 CA recall, it took a month until Arnold Schwarzenegger actually took over as gov. I assume in case of impeachment, the VP is sworn into office in a matter of hours?
