Nixon resigned I believe?
Maybe not. To be perfectly honest I’m not very well read on his presidency, and I was never taught anything I could remember about him.
Either way, perhaps a JOURNALIST ought to double check this before tweeting about it or making a retort about it. Moron.
The stupid is strong in him. But this is what passes for journalism these days.
Click on the “people are talking about this” and read the comments. Even Sherman admits Nixon resigned.
To be impeached means having the charges leveled and decided in congress. It is correct to say President Johnson and Clinton were impeached, although they were not removed from office.
Nixon resigned before impeachment occurred, therefore he was not impeached, if my memory is not shot to hell.
Tim Buktu, correct. Nixon came as close as it was possible to be without being impeached. The House was within inches of drafting the charges when Nixon literally saw the writing on the wall.
Who is surprised by this?! A guy from Vox is writing a transformers comic book.

These same idiots will claim Slick Willie Clinton wasn’t impeached.
I’m sure some of them think if th House impeached that President Trump leaves office and Hillary becomes President.
I lived through the Nixon resignation era. I was stationed at Andrews AFB, got caught in a reduction in force, but stayed in the area long enough to complete my masters degree offered at the Pentagon. Interesting time. Vice President Agnew resigned as a result of problems back when he was Governor of Maryland. Gerald Ford was named as replacement VP, and President Nixon resigned. Gerald Ford, the named replacement VP became President, never having ever run for either President ot Vice President.
On my drives to classes at the Pentagon, they had dramatic readings of transcripts of the Whitehouse tapes. That was where I learned the term “expletive deleted.” They were actual readings, not fictional parodies as rendered by Schiff.
There was no internet and no 24 hour news channel saturation, but we got a lot on the regular news, especially since the Agnew resignation resulted from his time as Governor of Maryland , and the then current Governor also was having his own problems.
Tim,
Be sure to mention that was Andrew Johnson, who succeeded the assassinated Abraham Lincoln, or some idiots will think you mean LBJ.
Meanwhile, Flaky says if it were secret vote, 35 republican Senators would vote to remove President Trump.

What a maroon!
^^ I saw that. That boy stupid.
Nixon was the south end of a north bound horse. Jimmy, Johnhson, BO and the Bush’s made tricky dickie look ok.
