From San Francisco to D.C., here’s what Americans were doing during last night’s historic impeachment vote.
Buckholt, a lifelong Democrat, said while he doesn’t expect Trump will be removed from office, the impeachment shows “you should not allow that type of activity.”
But despite that backdrop, the House impeachment vote did not cause much of a stir beyond some disgruntled feelings. In fact, Ohio State’s upcoming playoff game was of greater interest to some inside Jimmy V’s Grill & Pub, where televisions over the bar were tuned to the 2014 Orange Bowl — an unwelcome reminder for Buckeye fans of the team’s recent history with Clemson — than floor speeches in the House.Nearby, Scott Heller said he couldn’t escape impeachment coverage throughout the day.
Tourists occasionally popped into the hotel to take group photos and selfies in front of the large Christmas tree that sits in the center of the lobby. Camp came to the hotel lobby after spending the day on Capitol Hill but was surprised to find not many interested in the vote. While in the lobby, she met others who disapproved of some Democrats’ handling of the impeachment proceedings.
“It’s the kind of thing where you know what’s going to happen, but you still want to watch,” he said.In a bar less than a block from the Florida State Capitol, none of the two dozen or so patrons watched TVs that showed members of Congress voting to impeach Trump. Schultz and his friends came to watch the Miami Heat play the Philadelphia 76ers, which was being broadcast on two TVs behind the bar. But every now and then he glanced at the one TV on the far wall of the dining area just to see what was going on.
