The US House of Representatives passes Trump’s impeachment bill for ‘incitement to civil war’ on the 13th
10 Republicans Join 222 Democrats … “Ultra-Party Vote”
Senate impeachment proceedings, Trump’s friend of four, McConnell, left and right
The president of the United States, Donald Trump, was impeached in the United States House of Representatives on the 13th (local time). For the first time in American history, he came under the stigma of a president who was indicted twice by the House of Representatives during his tenure. It was a lightning-fast punishment a week after protesters supported by President Trump stormed the Washington Capitol on the 6th.
The momentum of the Democratic Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, came into play. The departure of 10 Republican deputies was also noted. President Trump belatedly yelled “ no violence, ” but the impeachment train left for the Senate. It is noteworthy if the Republican representative in the Senate, Mitch McConnell, who was the best friend of President Trump during four years in office, will stab him in the back with the impeachment of the Senate. At the beginning of his inauguration, President-elect Joe Biden is continuing the impeachment phase of Trump and is exploring whether a parallel push to state affairs will be possible.

① Pelosi: pulpit led by Trump’s second impeachment
Trump’s impeachment bill, which was initiated under the charge of “ inciting a civil war, ” passed in the House of Representatives this afternoon with 232 votes in favor, 197 votes against and 4 abstentions. This is the result of 222 Democrats in the House of Representatives and 10 Republicans in favor of impeachment. Liz Cheney, daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney and the third Republican in the House of Representatives, was the head of the Congressional Assembly.
President Pelosi is the first contributor to the House impeachment bill. Enraged by supporters of President Trump who stormed his office during the Capitol Crisis on the 6th, he went on to seek impeachment immediately on the 7th. The impeachment proposal was proposed on the 11th after the weekend, and the impeachment was finalized in two days.
In December 2019, in the Ukraine scandal, President Trump was already indicted once in the House of Representatives. As in her first impeachment pass 13 months ago, she arrived at the president’s seat in a black dress reminiscent of the duel, denouncing President Trump as “a clear and present danger to the country we all love.” It also meant that the democratic funeral procedure of American democracy, which had collapsed, had to be completed.

② Trump: Belatedly lamented about ‘anti-violence’ …
On the 6th, just before the invasion of the Capitol, President Trump, who told his supporters “let’s show our strength,” belatedly condemned the violence. In a statement issued at the time of the impeachment debate, he said in a statement issued at the time of the impeachment debate: “I ask all Americans to ease the tension and calm your anger,” he said in a statement issued a day ago in Texas as “the greatest continuation of the witch hunt in American history.” They expressed concern over the latest armed protests
In the video published immediately after the approval of the impeachment, he noted that “the parliamentary raid struck the heart of the republic.” However, he went on to argue that his representative catchphrase, “ MAGA, ” in relation to the rule of law, had no relation to intrusion and supporters.
The Washington Department of Justice mentions the possibility of prosecution in connection with the Capitol crisis, and President Trump, who is at the beginning of an amnesty due to the investigation of personal corruption by the New York Attorney General’s Office, is interested when to get a self-forgiveness card.

③ McConnell: Will we beat Trump in cooperation with the Senate impeachment?
On the 12th, when a report was released that McConnell’s presidential representative welcomed President Trump’s impeachment, everyone was excited about his decision. This is because he, who leads Republican senators and is the last bastion to stop Trump’s impeachment to the Senate, can hit the back of the head with cooperation with impeachment if he decides.
First, he drew a line in a statement after the House impeachment, saying: “There is no possibility (that the Senate) will reach a conclusion before Biden-elect takes office next week, given the rules, procedures and precedents “. However, in a memo to my fellow legislators, “The press is full of speculation, but I have not made a final decision on how to vote.” Compared to the fact that in February last year, the Senate vigorously blocked the passage of the impeachment bill of the ‘Ukraine scandal’, this is an unusual comment that opened the possibility of passage. It is interpreted that after President Trump stepped down, he began to push the Senate impeachment card while trying to dominate the Republican Party while trying to run again for president in 2024.

④Biden: Can you catch two rabbits?
In a statement after the passage of the impeachment bill, Biden criticized it as “a criminal attack by political extremists and domestic terrorists instigated by President Trump.” “(Passed) was a bipartisan vote of legislators in accordance with the constitution and conscience,” he said. “The impeachment process leads to the Senate.”
However, the situation in which the ‘black hole of Trump impeachment’ absorbs power from the state administration after taking office on the 20th is the worst-case scenario for Biden-elect. For this reason, he mentioned the approval procedures of the main nominees such as the Secretary of State, Defense and Finance, vaccination against infection by the new coronavirus (Corona 19) and economic recovery, and requested cooperation with the state administration even if the Senate went through impeachment proceedings. Of course, the Republican Party can’t pass it up, so Biden’s trick is needed.
