President Donald Trump is pressing Congress to pass a resolution that would symbolically nullify the two impeachments he faced during his first term in office, according to reports confirmed by a White House official.

The effort would allow Trump to claim a symbolic victory on what has been a key grievance from his previous presidency. Trump was impeached twice by the House of Representatives - first in 2019 over abuse of power related to his dealings with Ukraine, and again in 2021 for inciting the January 6, 2021 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

Trump remains the only president in U.S. history to be impeached twice. Both impeachment cases resulted in acquittals by the Senate, allowing him to complete his first term and later run for re-election.

Legal experts note that such a congressional resolution would carry little legal significance, as the Constitution provides no mechanism for undoing an impeachment once it has occurred. The impeachments would remain part of the historical record regardless of any symbolic action by Congress.

The push for expungement represents Trump's continued effort to address what he views as political grievances from his first presidency. Republicans now control both chambers of Congress, potentially providing a pathway for such a symbolic resolution to advance.
