Really?

Could swear they need 2/3rds?

So a simple majority can impeach?

A simple majority is all that is need in the House to impeach. The Senate needs a 2/3 vote to convict and remove from Office. If convicted, he is automatically removed from Office. The Vice President is sworn in.

The House just needs a simple majority to impeach. It then goes to the Senate for trial, which needs 2/3rds to convict.
