Have you never taken a civics class or are you just playing dumb?

Americans often equate impeachment with the removal of a president or other federal officials from office for committing a crime, but that’s incorrect. Impeachment is nothing more than the approval of formal charges against a president, vice president or other federal officeholder who stands accused of committing a crime. It’s like an indictment in a criminal proceeding. Once an officeholder is impeached by the House of Representatives, a trial is held by the Senate to determine whether the accused is guilty of the charges.
