President Donald Trump is trying to have his two impeachments from his first term “expunged,” The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday.

The idea would be for Congress to nullify those impeachments – which, constitutionally, is not a thing – in what would be a symbolic rebuke. In 2020, the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives impeached Trump for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress after he made the distribution of aid to Ukraine contingent on the country opening an investigation into potential wrongdoing by Joe Biden and his family. At the time, Biden was a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination. His son Hunter Biden had served on the board of a Ukrainian energy company called Burisma.

Trump was impeached again in 2021 after he attempted to overturn the results of the 2020 election and inspired the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. In each impeachment, the Senate failed to muster the two-thirds necessary to convict.

“President Trump and his allies have discussed pushing lawmakers to pass a resolution aimed at voiding his first-term impeachments, according to people familiar with the matter,” the Journal reported. “It would have little legal significance, however, because the Constitution provides no procedure for undoing an impeachment, according to experts.”

6. What Trump is really doing

Is saying to all the Republicans in Congress “Get down on your knees and lick my shriveled mushroom.” It’s a lame attempt to prove his dominance. What’s the under/over on those that will disgrace themselves even more?

10. Of Course, it nonsense

That's all a complete waste of time, especially since more impeachments are around the corner with his last two years coming up and a Democratic Congress and Senate.
