Allegedly, in order to persuade Zelensky to agree, the US president withheld federal military aid from Ukraine. So how will the impeachment process work, and what are its potential long-term implications for the president? Read on . . .

            If the conviction does pass the House, the ultimate decision is in the hands of the Senate, which is controlled by members of Mr. Trump's Republican Party. Hence, it could take some time before any resolution is reached.

                The thing is is that he really isn't a bad President. He is has increased the amount of Ethnical employment in the history of the United states. He is also trying to make peace with North Korea. So, I don't think he deserves to be impeached. {and if I were 18 I would vote for him!}
