It's certainly been up and down - Trump has sparked his fair share of outrage, imposing a temporary travel ban on Muslims entering and leaving the U.S. and banning transgender people from the military, just for example. But he also passed a bill that makes animal cruelty a federal crime, and unemployment in the country is at an all-time low at just 3.6 percent.Oh, and the infamous Mexican wall still hasn't been built.

Talk of the President's inevitable impeachment suddenly became serious.Trump was charged with 2 offenses.

The first was for abuse of power. It accused the President of trying to pressure Ukraine to smear his political rival, Democratic presidential contender Joe Biden, in a bid to cheat his way into winning the 2020 elections.It wasn't looking good.

The President was also accused of holding back major deals from Ukraine in an attempt to get the information - $400 million of military aid, to be precise.As for the second charge?
