2020H. Res. 755; Article II; Obstruction of Congress
Convicting President Donald J. Trump—Article II of Impeachment
2020 - U.S. Senate
Conservatives Oppose
Description
This is the second of two outrageous impeachment articles brought by Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA, ACUF Lifetime 3%) and Democratic Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY, ACUF Lifetime 5%) to reverse the results of the 2016 presidential election. This vote (Article II of Impeachment) wrongly alleges that President Donald J. Trump “obstructed Congress.” ACU recognizes the U.S. Constitution only calls for impeachment in cases of “treason, bribery, and other high crimes and misdemeanors” and that the Constitution specifically creates checks and balances, and when the executive and legislative branches have a conflict, those conflicts shall be resolved by the judiciary; conflicts are inevitable and must not be the basis for removing a duly elected president. Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA, ACUF Lifetime 5%), Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA, ACUF Lifetime 4%), and Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY, ACUF Lifetime 3%) have lawlessly advanced an illegal coup. ACU opposed the resolution. The Senate acquitted President Trump by finding him “not guilty” on February 5, 2020 by a vote of 47-53. (A two-thirds majority vote is required to convict. This vote is double-weighted due to its egregious attempt to reject the will of the People and reverse the results of the 2016 presidential election.)
