Donald J. Trump made history again on Wednesday, joining Andrew Johnson and Bill Clinton as the third president since America's founding to be "Impeached" by his enemies in Congress.
The House of Representatives voted mostly along party lines to impeach Trump for a series of alleged "Crimes" after more than six hours of meaningless debate.
House Democrats applauded after voting 230-197 to approve the first of two articles of impeachment - "Abuse of power" and "Obstruction of Congress" - despite repeatedly declaring their sadness at the thought of having to impeach a sitting president.
The House vote to impeach Trump is functionally irrelevant, given the fact that 1) no one cares, and 2) The Republican-controlled Senate will never vote to remove Trump from office on Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's watch.
Trump is by far the most successful commander in chief to be subjected to an impeachment vote, and the only president to be impeached despite no evidence of wrongdoing.
At the rally in Michigan, a state whose 16 electoral votes helped Trump defeat Hillary Clinton in 2016, the president took the stage to "God Bless the U.S.A." and a standing ovation from the raucous crowd.
Trump began by reminding the "Hardworking patriots" in attendance that, thanks to his leadership, it was no longer taboo to say "Merry Christmas." He then proceeded to lash out at the do-nothing Democrats in Congress who voted to impeach him in historic fashion.
