As expected, the US Congress, as expected, rejected the impeachment of the House of Representatives's abuse of President Trump and obstructing Congress investigation.The Senate voted almost fully in accordance with the party's position. Except for the Republican Senator Romney, he supported the Democratic Party when he voted his abuse of power.Although impeachment is not unexpected, this incident still brings important historical significance to US political development.
The Democratic Party and the Republican Party's impeachment survey and voting results in Trump in the Power House showed that the United States was seriously different from political leaders to ordinary people.Both parties pay particular attention to the interests of the party, not the rights given by the Constitution or the moral status of the president.The Democratic Party knew that the election at the end of this year was difficult to defeat Trump, so he chose to conduct moral trials on him in the House of Representatives to influence his image.The Republican Party accused the Democratic party's impeachment case purely based on hate on Trump and out of the interests of the election, so he tried to stop the impeachment case in the Senate.
In fact, the founding of the founding of the United States in the Constitution's impeachment system for the president is a checks and balance of the administrative power as Congress.The threshold for impeachment is extremely high.Three presidents have faced impeachment since the founding of the United States and eventually could not pass the Senate.This shows to some extent that impeachment is not the most effective means to deal with the president, and if the party that initiated the impeachment is improper, it may eventually make the object of impeachment profit.Former President Clinton, he ushered in high popularity after impeachment.Trump also showed signs of rising popularity. Gallop's latest polls showed that his support rate reached 49%, the highest point since he became president.
There are two more important significance in impeachment.First, Trump's defense lawyer once pointed out that the president did not constitute an impeachable behavior of impeachment during his tenure.Some Republican Senators also said that although Trump's behavior is inappropriate, it should not be exempted.This is likely to be a new standard for restrictions on presidential power in the United States constitutional system, which means that in the future, the president may also use his powers to seek benefits for himself, and Congress cannot initiate impeachment on him.Second, the president can mix personal interests and national security interests, and this does not constitute an impeachable abuse, which means that the supervision and checks and balances of the President in the future will be more difficult.Breakfast will fall to the administrative side.
The impeachment may make Trump more confident in himself. The next policy may be more bold. Washington's political process and policy formulation will be more strongly affected by his personal will.This is particularly obvious in US foreign policy. After all, the adults in the room are gone, and the two parties have more consensus in foreign affairs.In terms of domestic policies, because of the serious differences between the two parties, cooperation is almost impossible. Projects such as medical insurance, immigration, and environment are not easy to progress.
In view of the rise in Trump's support, the impeachment of Trump may not be conducive to his re -election at the end of the year.Although the Democratic Party stated that it would continue to pursue Trump, the negative effects of indiscriminate allegations were not easy to continue until the end of the year.Voters are very intuitive, and improving the economy and people's livelihood can usually add points to candidates.Just as Trump's political achievements have shown in the statement of the National Love Consultation, the United States is currently stable in economic growth. Gallopp's US economic confidence index has reached 40 points, which is the highest point in 20 years. The unemployment rate is new low in nearly 50 years.For the first time in 15 years, it exceeded 40%to 41%.In addition, Trump's global trade war also allowed competitors to compromise, including re -signing the US -Mexico -Canada Trade Agreement and the Sino -US first -stage trade agreement.In terms of diplomacy, Trump successfully allowed the allies to pay for more military expenses, and successfully made North Korea Kim Jong -un dare not overcome the thunder pond. He has a tough attitude towards Iran and forced Iran to temporarily retreat.EssenceOn the other hand, the Democratic Party not only had no heads of dragons, but also split for the primary election of the party. There was also confusion and technical problems in the Elych primary election, which caused many voters to be dissatisfied and inevitably became a laughing stock.
This impeachment case once again broke a series of tacit understanding and specifications of the US political system, including the Senate without summoning witnesses to make a decision and a new definition of presidential abuse.prove.To be sure, Trump's controversy will not end with the ruling of the Senate. American voters are the final referee MDash; mdash; should they have a stain but promise to lead the United States' great leaders again.In addition, if the Democratic Party controls the Senate after the election at the end of the year, the Congress and the White House will worsen; if the Republican Party controls the House of Representatives, the United States will leave a deep Trump Seal in the next four years.However, in recent years, the Democratic Party has obviously leaning and failing to propose effective political platforms. Its political stars have not had enough charm. This may make the Republican Party attract more voters.
