    Just to be clear on the definition, “impeached” doesn’t mean “removed from office”. To say someone was impeached just means that the House held a hearing.

    Clinton was impeached even though he wasn’t removed and completed his term. Same with Trump, though it happened twice.

    Nixon was NOT impeached since he resigned before the house could open hearings.
