President Donald Trump has become the 3rd president of the United States to be impeached by the US House Of Representatives. The vote was along party lines and since a 2/3s vote is needed in the senate to remove him from office, it does not look like that will happen. Republicans make up the majority in that chamber.
The political ramifications from the House vote remain to be seen. If the public perceives this as a so-called witch hunt, it could bolster Republican chances in 2020 or at least turn the public against Democrats. The ball is really in the Democrats court to win in the court of public opinion.
One thing is certain, the county, once deeply divided, has become even more divided on this presidency.

Hi Mike,
Good post. They could decide that the impeachee is impeared, and the orange man is the new Black Bart, or he is nothing more than a failed tv show everyone has to watch and we can't change the channel.
