The Smithsonian said on Saturday that it would restore information about President Donald Trump’s two impeachments to an exhibit in the National Museum of American History “in the coming weeks.” The Washington Post reported on Thursday that in July, the museum removed a placard describing Trump's impeachments and reverted the exhibit to how it looked in 2008. That display says that “only three presidents have seriously faced removal” — Andrew Johnson, Richard M. Nixon and Bill Clinton.
