The impeachment managers from the United States House of Representatives have delivered articles of impeachment against Donald Trump for incitement and insurrection against the United States government.

This would make Donald Trump the first president in United States history to be impeached twice. The Senate failed to convict Donald Trump the first time he was impeached.

Certain Republican senators have expressed that they do not support the present impeachment because Trump is no longer in office. They state that the second impeachment would serve to divide the nation further.

However, other Republican senators have stated that they would support impeachment under the circumstances because of the severity of what Trump is alleged to have done, i.e., incitement of insurrection against the government.

Most legal scholars agree that impeachment even after the president has left office is legally constitutional, because he was impeached while still in office, and the impeachment would serve to disqualify Donald Trump from ever holding office in the United States.

A minority of legal scholars’ state that it is not constitutional to impeach Donald Trump because he is no longer in office.

It does appear there is precedent for impeachment of a person once they leave office on the basis that a person who is impeached could simply resign without having to face the consequences of their actions and could potentially hold office again.

Whatever the case, there have been only four presidential impeachments in United States history, and now Donald Trump holds half of those four.

It will now be up to the Senate to determine the trial rules, and the timing of the trial. The House of Representatives will be the prosecutors in the impeachment.

Outgoing President Donald Trump was impeached for a second time today by the United States House of Representatives, for inciting sedition related to the attack on the United States Capitol building.

History was made for two reasons, first Donald Trump is the only president in American history to be impeached twice during a four-year term or any term for that matter, and secondly this was the most bipartisan impeachment of a President in United States history.

Obviously, the fact that Donald Trump was impeached for sedition against the United States government makes him the only president to ever be impeached for sedition as well.

Now Nancy Pelosi must transmit the impeachment documents to the Senate. The Senate leader McConnell says that he will not call the Senate back in the session until after Joe Biden has been sworn in as the new president.

This effectively means that the trial in the Senate on the impeachment will not occur until after Donald Trump has transitioned out of office, and Joe Biden is the new president.

Many Republican House of representative members questioned why the Democrats would impeach Donald Trump if he has only one week to remain in office, although ten Republicans joined in the vote for impeachment.

The Democrats responded by saying this type of conduct cannot be tolerated under any circumstances, and they want to ensure that Donald Trump will never be able to hold office again on the grounds that he is a clear and present danger to the United States of America.

Only 16 Republican senators need to join in on the Senate impeachment for all Trump to be convicted on the impeachment. It Donald Trump is convicted in the Senate on the impeachment, a simple majority vote will that be done to confirm that Donald Trump will no longer be able to hold office.

President elect Joe Biden has stated that he will defer to the Congress to decide the matter, and that his main interest is in dealing with the coronavirus pandemic and bringing back the economy.

Speaker of the house Nancy Pelosi has indicated that the House of Representatives will most likely initiate a second impeachment against Donald Trump for inciting insurrection against United States government, when he urged his followers to go to the United States Capitol building and use force to overturn the election.

The majority of Americans are shocked at what unfolded when the United States Capitol building was attacked by traitorous seditious minded Trump supporters attempting to interfere with the United States government certification of a lawful election. Both Democratic and Republican leaders have expressed outrage.

Both Democratic and Republican leaders have expressed deep concern about what Trump may be capable of in his last couple of weeks in office.

Some members of Trump’s cabinet have met to discuss invoking the 25^th amendment to the Constitution which in part states that if a majority of cabinet members and the vice president agree that the president can no longer discharge their function as president, that they can present those findings to the Congress who can then after a vote remove the president from office.

It is said that Vice President Pence is against invoking the 25^th Amendment.

National leaders both past and present feel that it is important to remove Trump from office to ensure the national security of the nation, and to ensure that he does not do any more damage to the nation.

Trump has for months brainwashed his followers into believing that there was no way he could lose the 2020 election unless there was rampant fraud. Once he lost the election, he claimed that he lost by fraud, and the constant brainwashing type of propaganda to his followers, have caused tens of millions of Americans to believe that the election was stolen even though there is absolutely no evidence to show wrongdoing in the election, and Trump has loss approximately 62 court cases including two Supreme Court cases.

The United States of America is in an unprecedented situation at the present time. We will report more as facts come out.
