what does it mean by impeachment?

anonymous · Answer

impeachment is the removal of an official from their position in office without their will, here for President Johnson there would be a vote within the government officials to see who wants him to be president and who doesn't and here the President himself has no choice, so it is somewhat like being fired from your job, just put into nicer words :P
