Impeachment motion against Trump: Voting tomorrow

- Provoked his supporters to attack Capitol Hill

- Trump killed many people to stop this proposal

Washington Tuesday, January 12, 2021

Democrats in the US House of Representatives have tabled an impeachment motion against outgoing US President Donald Trump.

The proposal will be put to a vote tomorrow. Recently, Trump provoked thousands of his supporters to march on the Parliament House. Thousands of supporters stormed and vandalized Capitol Hill. Trump was unwilling to accept the fact that he had lost the presidential election and kept saying that the election was rigged.

However Trump could not prove any such hoax in court. Thousands of so-called Trump supporters stormed and turned violent when the Electoral College on Capitol Hill was in the process of formally declaring Biden the winner. A total of four people, including a woman, were killed. More importantly, America was ridiculed all over the world.

Now Democrats in the House of Representatives have tabled an impeachment motion against Trump where the vote will take place tomorrow. In the United States, Trump may be the only president to have faced such an impeachment motion.

Meanwhile, Republican MP Alex Mooney opposed the proposal, appealing that parliament should reject it. However, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi told the House before the proposal was made that Trump's presidency would be a dangerous situation for the US Constitution. The proposal was being presented to impeach him. Pelosi's team will appeal to Vice President Mike Pence and the US Cabinet this evening to vote on the proposal. Parliament is not in session at the moment so this work may be hampered. Pelosi will then present the proposal before the full parliament today. Mike Pence and the Cabinet will have 24 hours to approve the impeachment.

Albert Schwarzenegger, the former governor of California, a Republican leader and actor of Hollywood's steel characters, compared the violence perpetrated by Trump supporters on America's Capitol Hill to that of the Nazis in Germany and called Trump a scumbag. He said Trump will forever be remembered as the worst president in American history. In 1938, Trump supporters staged violence on Capitol Hill, similar to the Nazi violence in Jewish settlements.

Trump, meanwhile, announced that he would not attend if Biden was sworn in as president on January 20. However, given Vice President Mike Pence's statements, it looks like Pence will attend the swearing-in ceremony.
