Trump's possible impeachment

United States President Donald Trump could face a historic second impeachment before the January 20 inauguration of Democrat Joe Biden, at a time when the United States is hit by a surging pandemic, a flagging economy and searing division. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi, the top Democrat in Congress, said there would be a resolution on Monday calling for the cabinet to remove Trump as unfit for office under the Constitution's 25th amendment. Pelosi was quoted as saying if Vice President Mike Pence does not agree to invoke the amendment, "we will proceed with bringing impeachment legislation" in the House, Pelosi said. Authorities are seeking to arrest more Trump supporters who violently stormed the Capitol on Wednesday after the president held a rally outside the White House repeating false claims that he had lost the election to Biden due to fraud.To take the conversation further as we close off the month we talk to: • Prof Jo Ansie van Wyk is a lecturer at the University of South Africa • Dr Bob Wekesa is from the African Centre for the Study of United States at Wits University
