This week on Purple Political Breakdown, we're diving deep into the constitutional chaos of impeachment - from Trump's historic double impeachment to what "high crimes and misdemeanors" actually means. We break down the entire process: how a president gets impeached, why it's different from removal, and why only three presidents have ever faced it (with none successfully removed by the Senate).
