There was no doubt that the battle that had suddenly erupted in Washington, D.C., along with the political scandals and dark dealings exposed during it, dealt a blow to the current administration far beyond anyone's imagination.
Once everything had settled down with the arrival of the super battleship, lawmakers from both houses of the United States immediately launched attacks and impeachment proceedings against the current administration.
Regardless of party affiliation, they all tacitly chose to shift every bit of blame onto the nation's nominal highest leader—the president.
They tried to divert public attention this way, giving the people an outlet for their anger and dissatisfaction.
Some even pinned their hopes on the next election.
They had performed similar maneuvers countless times before, and based on past experience, they had every reason to believe the situation would eventually die down.
Those ordinary people in the United States, whose memories were as short as fish, would soon forget these dark dealings and return to their muddleheaded lives under the rule of capital and political elites, obediently accepting exploitation and oppression while believing it was only natural.
Moreover, during the impeachment process, one could vaguely see the massive interest groups hiding behind the government making their moves.
As for the president in the White House who had been chosen to take the blame, like Ross, he had been ruthlessly abandoned by the capital that had backed his rise to power and turned into a discarded pawn.
The only thing worth being thankful for was that he did not need to worry about prosecution by the Federal Supreme Court. All he had to do was patiently wait for the impeachment proceedings to end and leave office.
After stepping down, he could even receive some private compensation.
