The impeachment inquiry launched in September 2019 opened up a thicket of questions and problems. This round-table discussion will start with remarks from an invited panel of experts on the topic of the impeachment of President Trump. Panelists will reflect on the proceedings of 2019 and ramifications for 2020, with attention to Constitutional and legal questions, political developments, and national security implications. Participants include those with particular insight into impeachment proceedings; the executive branch; Congress; electoral politics; Ukrainian law, elites, and political systems; and diplomatic practice.
