The Democrat-controlled House killed the latest impeachment effort against President Trump, despite successfully passing a resolution – which reprimanding him for making “racist” remarks the day before.

While all voting Republicans opted to table the latest impeachment effort, only 95 Democrats supported it, despite the party’s widespread calls to hold Trump accountable.

Rep. Al Green (D-TX) introduced the measure shortly after the House passed a resolution to condemn Trump over past tweets about the “Squad.” The title of the resolution itself accused Trump of racism: “Condemning President Trump’s racist comments directed at Members of Congress.”

It stated that the president’s “racist comments have legitimized fear and hatred of new Americans and people of color” and added that the House “strongly condemns President Donald Trump’s racist comments that have legitimized and increased fear and hatred of new Americans and people of color.”

It passed largely along party lines, 240-187. Four Republicans – Reps. Will Hurd (R-TX), Susan Brooks (R-IN), Fred Upton (R-MI), and Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA) – sided with Democrats.

Green filed articles of impeachment against Trump in hopes of riding on the coattails of outrage that inspired the condemnatory resolution. It stated that Trump is “unfit to defend the ideals that have made America great.”

“What do you do when the leader of the free world is a racist? What do you do? Well, here’s what you do. You file a resolution condemning the president for racist comments directed at members of Congress,” Green said on the House floor Tuesday.

“What do you do? You file articles of impeachment impeaching the President of the United States of America. These two things are not mutually exclusive,” he added.

The House voted on Green’s impeachment measure the following afternoon, to no avail. It failed spectacularly, with 137 Democrats and one independent – former Republican Rep. Justin Amash (I-MI) – siding with the GOP to table the measure. The final tally of 332-95 came as an embarrassment to the Democrat Party, given its near-constant demands for impeachment.

Every member of the “Squad” – Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) – voted in favor of the measure.

Other notable Democrats who voted in favor include Reps. Maxine Waters (D-CA), Frederica Wilson (D-FL), Eric Swalwell (D-CA), Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), and Sheila Jackson Lee (D- TX).

The majority of Democrats, however, opted to table the measure along with Republicans. Here are those 137 lawmakers.

Trump thanked the Democrats who voted alongside the GOP during his rally in Greenville, North Carolina Wednesday evening, adding that they “did the right thing for our country.”

“I have to tell you, this vote was so big, I have to thank many of the Democrats,” he said. “I mean that was amazing – no, no, I really do, I respect it. I really do.”

New calls for impeachment are surfacing Thursday, notably from Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA).

In light of Wednesday’s vote by Democrats, the future of impeachment remains ambiguous.
