Donald Trump has now become the first president in the history of the United States of America to be impeached twice.
The president has been charged with inciting an insurrection following the Capitol riots on 6 January 2021.
Speaker of the US house of reps Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat, said: “The president of the United States incited this insurrection, this armed rebellion against our common country.
“He must go. He is a clear and present danger to the nation that we all love.”
A total of 10 Republicans voted against their party and Donald Trump, with the final result staying at 232 votes to impeach, and 197 against.
The Senate will now hold a trial to establish whether Donald Trump is guilty and if he should be removed from office – this however, will require a two-thirds majority.
They can also vote to ban Donald Trump from standing for election ever again – which only requires a simple majority (50% + 1).
It is almost unlikely that this will happen before Inauguration day on the 20th of January when President-Elect Joe Biden is expcted to be sworn in as The 46th President of the United States of America
