Opinion: Impeachment Does Not 'Overturn' an Election
In class the other day, there was mention of the idea of impeachment overturning election results. I found this article intriguing as a counterpoint that essentially argues that there would be no significant shift in power or politics if Trump were to be impeached and even removed from office. Impeachment, this writer argues, is instead important as a means of a legislative check on presidential power written into the Constitution. This article could also be a useful resource in counteracting possible arguments that the process is illegitimate due solely to the idea that the election would be 'overturned.'
