Electric at the President Trump re-election campaign rally. The swamp democrats have been wanting to impeach Trump since day one he was elected. In fact, the first day he ran for president.

He has been impeached, now on both counts, based on his conduct while in office. He had every opportunity to perform well, and failed. The republicans wanted to impeach President Obama from the day he was elected, but he never gave them any ammunition to do it with. trump delighted in doing so.

History in the making...Prediction...
Trump impeached by House
Trump exonerated by Senate
Trump reelected by voters.

Donald Trump is set to become the third US president in history to be impeached later by the House of Representatives.Democratic lawmakers are expected to approve two impeachment charges against the Republican president on Wednesday.

Mr Trump is scheduled to face a trial in the Senate next month, but that chamber is controlled by members of his party and it is unlikely to vote that he should be removed from office.The president has called the process an "attempted coup" and a "witch hunt".

BREAKING: House Dems Get Their Christmas Wish, Vote to Impeach Trump.

Both articles passed with only partisan votes. Both votes not to impeach drew bipartisan support.

The only bipartisan votes were NOT to impeach

Knows it's a failed election year stunt and an abuse of House Power.

The "abuse of power" article is nothing more than a policy dispute. The claim centers on a July 25 call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, in which the president asked Zelensky to investigate potential Ukrainian involvement in the 2016 election and potential corruption surrounding Hunter Biden's lucrative work with Ukrainian gas firm Burisma. Then-Vice President Joe Biden pressured Ukraine's president to fire an investigator looking into Burisma at the time.

To make matters worse for Democrats, Zelensky and other officials have insisted that they never felt pressure from Trump on the issue.

The alleged underlying crime is not only debatable but hard to understand. Democrats' narrative has collapsed, but they continued their rush to impeach Trump over a policy dispute. This followed years of warnings about Russian collusion that fell apart in Robert Mueller's report and the recent inspector general report into the Corrupt FBI's abuse of FISA in spying on Trump's campaign.

Democrats have been attempting to impeach Trump since his election. In the hours after the 2016 presidential election, Google searches for "how to impeach a president" rose by 4,850 percent. Democrats urged the Electoral College to refuse to certify the win, nearly 70 Democratic lawmakers boycotted Trump's inauguration, and many refused to attend his first State of the Union address.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) introduced a bill in April 2017 to determine whether to invoke the 25th Amendment, which allows a president to be removed if "unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office." Raskin found 67 co-sponsors to the bill.

As early as September 2017, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) urged impeachment, saying that "there is no law" on the process.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, (D-N.Y.), argued that Trump committed an impeachable offense from "day one."

Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) filed articles of impeachment against Trump, claiming his language "can no longer be tolerated or ignored. We must impeach."

President Trump sent Pelosi an historic letter rightfully condemning the impeachment effort.

"The Articles of Impeachment introduced by the House Judiciary Committee are not recognizable under any standard of Constitutional theory, interpretation, or jurisprudence," the president wrote. "They include no crimes, no misdemeanors, and no offenses whatsoever. You have cheapened the importance of the very ugly word, impeachment!"​

"You are the ones interfering in America's elections," Trump reminded Pelosi. "You are the ones subverting America's Democracy. You are the ones Obstructing Justice. You are the ones bringing pain and suffering to our Republic for your own selfish personal, political, and partisan gain."
​

Jenna Ellis, a widely respected constitutional lawyer and senior legal advisor to the Trump campaign, called for Democrats supporting impeachment to be expelled from Congress for violating their oaths to uphold the Constitution by weaponizing impeachment contrary to the express will of the Founders.

Not one Republican voted for Trump's impeachment. The only Bipartisan votes were to NOT impeach. This will be quickly followed by two bipartisan votes in the Senate, NOT to remove.

It's difficult to believe that Democrats actually went through with this, but if it was unavoidable, it's better that they haves so that we can quickly put an end to this divisive unnecessary nonsense in The US Senate.

Just to think how much this can vote the pill popping Pelosi out next year is going to be memorable.

Congratulations, Democrats, you just handed 2020 to Trump.

Trump Should Not Prolong Boring Impeachment Battle.

Cocaine Mitch is right.

"Enough already. This House impeachment session was like having root canal—without anesthesia.
​

It's all been enough.

Time for the US Senate to quickly put an end to this bitter division so that we can come together for our own good and enjoy the fabulous blessings of our prosperity.

The senate won't vote to convict.

Which is the republicans saying that it's ok to violate the constitution, violate the law, violate the people's trust and violate everything the founders of our nation fought hard to establish and all of those of us who fought to preserve our nation.

If a democratic president had done what trump has done that democratic politician would have been impeached, convicted, put on trial and then in prison for the crimes.

Today's proceedings provide some hope that our fundamental institutions will survive. As has been stated so many times, if trump's conduct does not afford grounds for impeachment, what would?
P.S. the loss of the live feed some minutes ago was really scary.

I'm editing my comment now. It has happened yet again. All of the TV channels are black, not just the news channels covering the impeachment. Even the weather channel.
