The Impeachment of President Donald J. Trump: A Comprehensive Legal and Political Analysis
On December 18, 2019, the United States House of Representatives voted to impeach President Donald J. Trump on two charges: abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. This marked only the third time in American history that a sitting president had been impeached, following Andrew Johnson in 1868 and Bill Clinton in 1998. The impeachment stemmed from allegations that President Trump solicited foreign interference in the 2020 U.S. presidential election by pressuring Ukraine to investigate political rival Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden. Furthermore, it was alleged that President Trump obstructed the congressional investigation into this matter by directing executive branch officials to defy subpoenas and withhold documents.
