'The president has taken an oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution,' former judge Andrew Napolitano wrote. 'Instead, he has trashed it.'
"Trump will luxuriate in his victory. But the personal victory for him is a legal assault on the Constitution," he argued."The president has taken an oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution. Instead, he has trashed it."
Trump became the third president in U.S. history to be impeached by the House of Representatives in December. The president was impeached for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, in a vote that fell nearly along party lines. Conservative Representative Justin Amash of Michigan, who was elected as a Republican but registered as independent last July, voted with Democrats to impeach the president.
Multiple administration witnesses testified that there was a"quid pro quo" involved with the pressure campaign as well. Trump temporarily withheld nearly $400 million in military aid to Ukraine and a White House meeting for the country's president while he pushed the foreign government to announce the investigations against his political rivals.
GOP Senator Mitt Romney of Utah was the only member of his party to break ranks and vote alongside Democrats. This alsoof being the first senator in U.S. history to vote to remove a president of his own political party.
