Wondering if the next GOP House could repeal impeachment? One source says yes, it could be repealed but not undone. Still, I'd feel better knowing that the impeachment resolution was undone, showing support for Trump and undoing as much of that unfair schitt show as possible.
PrawfsBlawg: Can An Impeachment Be Repealed?
"The answer, I think, is yes. It's never been done before, but I am hard pressed to see why the House is bound by an impeachment passed by a prior one. This is different from an impeachment and a conviction. The Senate's judgment in impeachment trials is final. The impeachment itself, though, is not different from any other House resolution. (There is an analogy here to the Senate's Censure of Andrew Jackson in 1834, which a different Senate expunged three years later.) I doubt, though, that a repeal of an impeachment will mean that people will say that President Trump was not impeached."
Lets take a poll, even if the formal original "impeachment and verdict" wouldn't be removed, it would still show some fairness toward Trump and that the original impeachment resolution was partisan.
