President Joe Biden will not be impeached, the top Republican in the Senate said Wednesday.
“The president is not going to be removed from office with a Democratic House and a narrowly Democratic Senate. That’s not going to happen,” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said at an event in his home state when asked whether the president’s behavior should trigger an impeachment.
“I think the way these behaviors get adjusted in this country is at the ballot box,” he added. “There isn’t going to be an impeachment.”
Democrats control the House of Representatives with a 220–212 majority while holding a slim one-vote majority in the upper chamber with the vote of Vice President Kamala Harris.
Impeachment requires a simple majority in the House and a supermajority conviction vote in the Senate.
Former President Donald Trump was impeached twice but both times the Senate voted to acquit him. No president in history has been impeached and convicted.

Thanks for Trying, turtle.
You really make a diff.
He is right. Biden isn’t going to be impeached. Maybe if the GOP takes back Congress and wants to harass Biden with 0 chance of conviction in the Senate like the Dems did to Trump they could do it but they will get the same results.
Has McConnell justifiably condemned Biden in a speech on the floor of the Senate, as he unjustifiably did to Trump?
This is good news. McConnell is usually wrong about everything.
Pray tell, kind sir, what is this magical "ballot box" of which you speak?
C'mon man, give Mitch a break. He's been busy making public service videos, promoting people to get the jab.
Leave Biden in, he will do more damage to the Democrats while in office than out of office...
Yeah just let it slide down the rabbit hole so everyone forgets how he f’d things up so badly.
“Biden is not going to be impeached”
Paging Captain Obvious….
biden could make history by being the “president” die during a news conference.
Live on air.
Probably wouldn’t matter ... Slow Joe would claim insanity ... he couldn’t participate in his own defense.
biden could make history by being the FIRST “president” to die during a news conference.
Live on air.
The Turdle has spoken.
Why not impeach the Turtle. He’s listed as a republican, so that might work.
I don’t want McConnell to be our leader. Not just because of impeachment, but he represents the GOP Establishment. There’s no movement to replace him.
Always the Assistant Democrat.
That should be, "at the computer of the leftist programmer writing the vote counting app."
