I'm surprised it's not trending on twitter
Also, tall you won't die if/because Iran and the US hostilities continue.
Cuz pence is gonna kill the gays
Pence is terrifying
HasTrump really been impeached?
The House voted to impeach back in December. They just voted to send the articles of impeachment to the Senate this week.
He has officially been impeached.
Oh damn
Not surprised in the slightest
He probably won't be removed from office, but he has been impeached.
Oh
The trial started today
Got it.
Hate the word impeach...makes it sound like someone being turned into fruit
There's been a few president's impeached but nobody has left office prematurely to my knowledge
Yes now we can eat the peach.
I don't taste good 😁
Does that prevent him from running again?
3 presidents have been impeached
damn
The trial proper starts a week from now. They're just setting everything up.
There have been three impeachments of Presidents: Andrew Johnson, Bill Clinton, Donald Trump.
They can still run again, but no one has ever been reelected after impeachment, though my money is on Trump getting reelected anyway.
So what the fuck was the point in doing it?
If it literally has no consequences?
Also why the fuck are there no consequences?!
It has serious consequences.
The two big ones seem left the fuck out though
An impeachment is essentially like charging the President with a crime of abusing the presidency.
And then letting him stay in office and potentially get re elected?? Wtf
There is a trial in the Senate, which must convict the President with 67 senators voting for removal.
Which isn't gonna happen.
There's too many Republicans
Right. If the Senate is so partisan that they won't vote to remove even a "guilty" President, the only power of impeachment is to stain that President's name in history.
Which is fucking insane
Like I get that everyone deserves the right to trial and all of that
I mean a simple majority vote in the house is too low a bar for removing a president.
@DragonKit NEEERD
It's the one time the Constitution let's the government simply agree to overturn the will of the electorate.
A fair trial has nothing to do with it. This is a political trial.
