He was impeached (a House action). Twice.

See your own point about Clinton.

Senate did their job perfectly as there was no reason to convict.

Bennie Thompson to meet with Nancy Pelosi as Dems eye next step on Jan. 6 investigation

Speaker Nancy Pelosi will meet this morning with a group of House committee chairs, including Homeland Security Committee Chair and Mississippi Rep. Bennie Thompson, to discuss House Democrats’ next move on investigating the deadly Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

House Democrats passed a bill last month with support from 35 Republicans, including Mississippi Rep. Michael Guest, calling for creation of a bipartisan commission to investigate the deadliest attack on the Capitol since the War of 1812. However, the bill was blocked by Senate Republicans, including Mississippi Sens. Roger Wicker and Cindy Hyde-Smith. The final 54 to 35 Senate vote fell six votes shy of the 60 votes needed to prevent a procedural filibuster.

Siding with the rioters during a violent attack on Congress and an active attempt to assassinate the Vice President was more than enough reason.

Trump remains a cult figurehead to many in his base though, totally blameless, immaculately perfect, and they wouldn't allow their Senators to hold him accountable.

So fractured they picked up 20+ seats in the house and are expected to take it in 2022.

So fractured they put about 30 new women in Congress.

So fractured the Hispanic Vote is turning red in massive amounts.

So fractured Trump can still have massive rally's whenever he wants.

Especially LMAO at thinking there was an active attempt to assassinate the VP.

No need to hold him accountable, unless you have proof that hasn’t been uncovered for over years?

Biden also probably thought he gave a stern lecture to Gorbachev.

Documents show Trump, allies pressed DOJ to overturn 2020 election -U.S. House Oversight panel

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Documents obtained from the U.S. Department of Justice detail efforts by then President Donald Trump, his chief of staff and other allies to pressure the department to challenge the 2020 presidential election results, a U.S. House panel said on Tuesday.

The House Oversight and Reform Committee, which sought the records from the Justice Department, outlined a series of overtures from Trump, top aide Mark Meadows and an outside private attorney pushing the department to act on the former Republican president's false election claims.

The documents come as U.S. lawmakers continue to investigate the Jan. 6 deadly attack on the U.S. Capitol by pro-Trump supporters seeking to thwart Congress' certification of Democrat Joe Biden's win.
