US President Donald Trump is currently facing an impeachment inquiry.
The US President has been accused of offering a quid pro quo to Ukraine in military funds in exchange for Ukraine publicly investigating Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden in a 2014 scandal.
If you’ve been confused and thinking, “Arre yaar. Another controversy with Trump,” relax, because we’re explaining what this impeachment inquiry is all about, today.
What happens if Trump is impeached? Well impeachment doesn’t automatically mean he’ll be removed from office. That’s a common misconception.
For Trump to be impeached and removed from office, he’ll need to be impeached by the house of representatives. BTW impeachment is simply the process of charges being brought against him, and then a two-thirds majority of the 100-member US Senate will need to convict him and find him guilty.
So just because a President is impeached doesn’t mean he’ll automatically be removed from office.
