It’s hard to believe that Donald Trump has only been back in office for a year, given the relentless news cycle he seems so obsessed with commanding (once a reality star, always a reality star?). From ordering especially high numbers of thuggish ICE agents into states that voted for his Democratic rival, Kamala Harris, to belittling allies in Europe (much to the delight of Russia’s President Putin), Trump sadly shows no signs of ending the chaos that is impacting the lives of millions the world over.
Outside of these vastly consequential decisions, the 79-year-old’s critics are also quick to point out that Trump is the first twice-impeached president with a criminal conviction to his name – and are now calling for him to be impeached a third time (something which could theoretically be possible if his party loses in the mid-term elections this coming November).
Alongside the two previous impeachments, Trump also has 34 felony counts to his name and one official conviction (plus six instances of bankruptcy). Accusations levelled against the President range from raping a teenager in 1994 to rigging the 2016 election and allegations that he incited and encouraged violence that led to the 6 January 2021 storming of Capitol Hill.
So, what has Trump actually been accused – and convicted – of over the years? Here’s a timeline recapping the key cases…
