I’m from Korea, and we impeached our president last year, mostly because he declared martial law, but he was also a terrible president, and no one really liked him being there, even his own party.

Why can’t the U.S do the same, if Donald Trump is so bad? Why are some Americans even supporting him?

    The funny thing is that they tried to impeach trump twice the first time he was president. Both times failed because there weren’t enough votes in the senate to actually impeach him.

    So, even if 'muricans tried again, it’s likely the impeachment would fail again because of their senate

      Small correction. He was impeached by the House. The Senate then decides whether to convict, not whether to impeach.

      Which is why it’s so important that we turn out and vote in the midterms. So many Americans don’t vote in the midterms because it’s not for the presidential race.

      Anyway if you can vote in the next midterms, show TF up and we could actually get the votes to oust this monster.
