The House of Representatives has voted on Wednesday afternoon to get President Donald Trump impeached for the second time around for "incitement of insurrection."

There were 232 House lawmakers in favor of having Trump impeached while 197 lawmakers objected to the move.

Of all the lawmakers who agreed to have Trump impeached, 10 were members of the Republican Party, reported Fox News.

On January 6, a crowd of Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol in an attempt to stop the certification of electoral votes for President-elect Joe Biden.

The president's speech prior to this siege urged his supporters to march to the Capitol, a message that some believe may not be interpreted as inciting an insurrection.

The U.S. has only held impeachment proceedings four times, two of which were against Trump. This makes him the only president to face impeachment for a second time in a span of 13 months.

The Republicans who approved to impeach Trump were Reps. Liz Cheney, Dan Newhouse, Jaime Herrera Beutler, Adam Kinzinger, John Katko, Fred Upton, and Peter Meijer, Tom Rice, Anthony Gonzalez, and David Valadao, reported The Blaze.

Trump Impeached as Lawmakers Fear for His Actions in Final Week in Office

Trump only has a week left before the conclusion of his term in office.

But supporters of his impeachment want to move quickly because they sense it is "dangerous" to keep Trump in office any longer.

CNBC said in an article that the four-page article of impeachment argued that Trump fed his supporters months of false claims about the election and urged them to contest the results.

These actions led to the violet riot at the Capitol which disrupted the Congress' count of Biden's votes.

The resolution said Trump "threatened the integrity of the democratic system, interfered with the peaceful transition of power, and imperiled a coequal branch of Government."

These all manifest to betrayal of Trump as president that could harm Americans, the document added.

"People died because of the big lies that were being told by this president, and by too many people on the other side of the aisle," said Rep. Jim McGovern in a speech before the vote. "People should be outraged as to what happened."

In McGovern's opinion, the deaths related to the riot were already enough to warrant an impeachable offense and makes Trump unfit to remain in office.

Trump Impeached, But More to Be Expected in Senate

After Trump's impeachment has gone through the House, his fate now lies in the hands of Senators who will determine if Trump should be convicted.

The House will be sending the resolution to the Senate soon and, once there, it is expected to become the chamber's top priority, said an Al Jazeera report.

"It will be an action that is privileged on top of all other actions," Al Jazeera's Steve Clemons noted, adding that the trial can happen even after Trump is no longer president.

The Senate will be on recess until January 19 and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has rejected a request from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer to reconvene the Senate immediately.
