Although he has been impeached by the House of Representatives, Trump still remains in office until his impeachment is approved by the upper house of the American legislature, the Senate

The charged against Trump was spearheaded by the Democratic-led House of Representatives under Speaker Nancy Pelosi.

Speaking on the impeachment, Pelosi said Trump gave Democrats no choice but to pursue impeachment.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi led the impeachment proceedings that led to the ouster of Donald Trump as president.

Trump was charged by the Democratic-led House of Representatives for obstruction of Congress and abuse of power related to his dealings with Ukraine.
