Trump was impeached because of his handling of Ukraine. This needs to be remembered, especially when he toutes that the war wouldn’t have started if he were president.

In case you forgot, Trump was impeached because of his illegal dealing with Ukraine. The fact that this isn’t mentioned every time he claims the war wouldn’t have happened if he was president needs to change.

Trump was impeached in his first term because of the “quid pro quo” call that was made public. I’ll be honest. I didn’t know shit about Ukraine back then, but since the war started, this event has been SO memorable for me.

Trump was impeached. Even though that apparently carries no weight in politics nowadays, I think it’s important to remember. Trump was impeached for bribing Ukraine leadership to help him win the 2020 election. When he says this war wouldn’t have happened if he had been president, he means it would have happened behind the scenes.

This is an excerpt from the impeachment:

Using the powers of his high office, President Trump solicited the interference of a foreign government, Ukraine, in the 2020 United States Presidential election. He did so through a scheme or course of conduct that included soliciting the Government of Ukraine to publicly announce investigations that would benefit his reelection, harm the election prospects of a political opponent, and influence the 2020 United States Presidential election to his advantage. President Trump also sought to pressure the Government of Ukraine to take these steps by conditioning official United States Government acts of significant value to Ukraine on its public announcement of the investigations.
