Two American presidents were impeached. There have been about sixty impeachments in this country with quite a few actually resulting in removal of the defendants, mostly judges.
At the Philadelphia convention, Benjamin Franklin pointed out that assassination was the usual method of removing obnoxious politicians and he suggested, and enough of his colleagues agreed with him, that a legislative process was preferable.

Enough of Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton’s colleagues were so disgusted with their conduct that they voted to impeach.
It couldn’t help but put a damper, one would think, on their respective excesses. As I recall, it made Slick stop assaulting women in and off the Oval office (as far as we know) for the few months remaining of his second term.
Impeach him. It’s the right thing to do.

As I said ... there has NEVER (even once) EVER been a single President removed from office from this Constitutional process. It has NEVER succeeded even one time in the entire history of our country of removing one single President, by this process.
