Trump Impeachment

Trump Impeachment refers to the two formal proceedings against Donald Trump as U.S. President, in 2019-2020 and 2020-2021, under the Constitution's process where the House of Representatives approves articles of impeachment and the Senate holds a trial. The first impeachment charged abuse of power and obstruction of Congress related to a Ukraine phone call; the second charged incitement of insurrection after the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack. Both trials ended in Senate acquittals, making Trump the only president impeached twice.

Trump Impeachment remains relevant in 2025 amid polls showing majority voter support for a potential third impeachment early in his second term. It affects debates over presidential accountability, constitutional limits on power, and public trust in government institutions. Affected parties include Congress, political parties, and the electorate divided along partisan lines.

People engage through public opinion polls reflecting support or opposition to impeachment efforts. Advocacy groups conduct and publicize surveys to gauge voter sentiment on constitutional violations. Petitions and online campaigns emerge to urge congressional representatives toward or against impeachment proceedings.
