Donald Trump Impeached For Abuse Of Power & Obstruction Of Justice

Donald Trump Impeachment Remains The Senate Decision

History was made on Wednesday when United States House of Representatives voted on Wednesday to impeach President Donald Trump.

In the recent weeks, Trump’s been facing allegations for involvement with Ukraine in connection with his re-election campaign. The two articles of impeachment are “abuse of power” and “obstruction of justice”.

Trump was not only accused soliciting Ukrainian officials to help him with his 2020 presidential campaign, but he also used taxpayers’ dollars, violated national security, and attempted to cover up the scandal.

And here’s the moment he was impeached :

Although he has consistently denied that he as done anything wrong and repeatedly says the proof is in the transcripts. This is the third time in American history where a president has been impeached; the first was Andrew Johnson back in 1868, and the second was Bill Clinton in 1998.

The next step in his impeachment process falls into the hands of the U.S. Senate. Considering the Senate is majority GOP, it isn’t likely that they will press forward to have Trump removed from office.

See Trump’s reaction below :

Can you believe that I will be impeached today by the Radical Left, Do Nothing Democrats, AND I DID NOTHING WRONG! A terrible Thing. Read the Transcripts. This should never happen to another President again. Say a PRAYER!

I’ll say it again. Donald Trump will be the only president in history to be impeached by the House, exonerated by the Senate and re-elected in 2020 by a landslide.

Donald Trump is the 3rd President in US history to have been impeached by the House. But, impeachment doesn’t mean instant removal.

There will then be a trial held in Senate. If 67% of the Senate votes for conviction, then he will be removed from office.

Otherwise, he remains.
