Using manufactured evidence produced by the Deep State and delivered by the Deputy Director of the FBI, whose role was covered up by an ideologically unified news media consisting of two newspapers and 3 TV networks, a Congressional Committee forced the resignation of a President who just 18 months before had won 520 electoral votes and 61% of the popular vote - so there’s that.
