    He’s been impeached, three times I think.

    Think of impeachment as a crowd chanting “shame on you!”. It won’t actually accomplish much. If anything, it encourages someone like Trump, who takes great pride in being shameful and hated.

      He hasn’t been fully impeached. If ratified by the senate he would be removed from office.

        He has been fully impeached to the absolute maximum, congress does impeachment and that is all.

        Senate does an impeachment trial. They are not the same thing.

        Bill Clinton was IMPEACHED. Donald Trump was IMPEACHED. Your correction is REJECTED by every available news source and every available English dictionary on planet Earth.
