Hard to imagine how MAGAts are so easily brainwashed when they have such a firm grasp on facts.

Impeachment is what happened yesterday. It's done. Three presidents have been impeached including Trump. Nixon quit before the Articles of Impeachment were brought to the floor for a vote so he was not impeached. No President has been convicted by the Senate and removed from office. Ever. But three have been impeached. That's the way it works.

I may copy-and-paste to acquaintances who claim he's not impeached until the Senate vote.
