Trump has been impeached

Posted by / December 20, 2019

President Donald Trump has become the third sitting president ever to be impeached. The results were extremely partisan––only two Democrats voted no on impeachment, and no Republicans voted yes.

But when the Senate gathers to vote––which may be awhile, since Pelosi is holding off sending the articles of impeachment over until she thinks the Senate will give them a fair trial––it doesn’t look great. Lindsey Graham’s promised to be a partial juror (contrary to his oath of office), the impeachment odds are beginning to stack up against Trump.

Despite the Senate’s unwillingness, a Fox News poll reveals that 54% of Americans want Trump impeached. What’s more, over a dozen editorial boards support impeachment and removal from office.

That it was a Fox News poll that shows turning tides is significant. Last week, Fox News host Chris Wallace has declared war on Trump. That’s only because he thinks that Trump declared war on him, first.

“I believe that President Trump is engaged in the most direct sustained assault on freedom of the press in our history,” Wallace said, “He has done everything he can to undercut the media, to try and delegitimize us, and I think his purpose is clear: to raise doubts when we report critically about him and his administration that we can be trusted.”

Trump seems to be losing allies left and right. Last month, he attended a UFC event, only to be met with boos and jeers. A few cheered, but the majority were not as kind, and people tweeted out the booing. According to a political scientist, this is potentially bad news for Trump––this should be Trump’s crowd, so this might be a sign that Trump’s base is turning on him.

He was booed at the World Series, the height of American sports. And to make matters worse, parts of the crowd also turned his own chant against him, shouting “lock him up!” Watching the video, it’s clear he’s muttering under his breath and trying not to storm out of there.
