TRUMP WAS NOT IMPEACHED. HE WAS VOTED FOR IMPEACHMENT

Trying to get people to stop saying Johnson, Clinton, Trump were all impeached, is not something that will stick because most people aren't going to bother with definitions.

But impeachment means removal upon conviction.

Whereas voting to impeach is a form of indictment.

It is correct to say no American President has ever been impeached.

It's not splitting hairs, it's just showing respect and awareness of terms.

Trump as of today must answer to a vote of impeachment, a partisan, unjust, false vote of impeachment by criminal opponents who are using offensive lies in a process available to them to shield themselves from justice.

I am certain these agents of subversion have cemented in place the process of impeaching themselves. But first they will threaten via blackmail at least 20 GOP Senators to impeach the President. And when they lose, they will blame the GOP Senate for allowing Trump to rig the 2020 election thereby putting in peril their brand of 'democracy'.

Yeah that to remove from office, but he has been impeached, but the House must send the articles of impeachment to the Senate for that impeachment (indictment) to become official. If they fail to send over the articles of impeachment then it is as if the impeachment never occurred. At least according to their own constitutional scholar they had a witness, whose name I can’t remember. Once they send over the articles of impeachment President Trump is then officially impeached, regardless of the outcome in the Senate. That makes sense, when explained in that fashion. 8>)

It makes the Left go apoplectic, so it’s all good.

Naw, it’s not enough yet.

Trump has been impeached regardless of what the fools maintain saying otherwise. Impeachment is not removal from office and sooner or later the Senate will have a trial and will acquit Trump probably after a one day session without further witnesses. Anyone saying he hasn’t been impeached or that removal itself is impeachment is incorrect and by this proved to be a dim wit of the first order.

You never answered the question of what was incorrect in the definition posted and it is because you couldn’t. It was essentially the same as a dozen other correct definitions I could have posted.

This isn’t rocket science or brain surgery and the Constitution is clear on what impeachment and removal from office requires.

There was some brief discussion on Ingrahm's show, Robert Ray said the impeachment could be expunged by a future House, and certainly if both House and Senate passed the same expungement resolution.

It's not over until it's over!
