If The Senate Fails To Convict, A President Is Considered Impeached But Not Removed

Image
                President Trump.   President Donald Trump became the third president in history to be impeached. An impeachment proceeding is the formal process by which a sitting president of the United States may be accused of lawlessness or misconduct .

By the way, only President Bill Clinton and Johnson have been impeached and no U.S. president has ever been dislodged.  Johnson faced impeachment in 1868 after clashing with the Republican-led House over the “rights of those who had been freed from slavery,” although firing his secretary of war, Edwin Stanton, who was backed by the Republicans, led to the impeachment effort. The articles of impeachment centered on the Stanton event, according to the Senate. Clinton's impeachment case was connected to the incident with the White House intern Monica Lewinsky while in office, and was 22 votes less from rea...
