It’s ironic that he was not removed from office (although he’s out now thanks to the will of the people in voting!), and in a highly publicized trial in the Senate that he called a “witch hunt”, was acquitted of inciting insurrection at the same time that in Myanmar, Aung San Suu Kyi is removed from office and, in a secret trial that even her lawyer wasn’t informed of, tried for wait for it illegally importing walkie talkies, and interacting with a crowd during a pandemic. No “verdict” there yet, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they killed her. The utter absurdity!

Actually, he was impeached – twice. He didn’t get convicted either time, but the impeachments still stick.

He should be seen leaping over “CONVICTION”.
