The article analyzes the origins, course and consequences of the impeachment process of the 45th US President D. Trump. The author points out that the efforts of Democrats in both houses of Congress to remove the President from office because of his foreign policy have been unprecedented. This case radically differs from the two previous processes of impeachment of American presidents in the last third of the XIX century and at the end of the XX century. This could have far-reaching consequences for the future of US democratic political system and American foreign policy.
