Not all that impressive, but the 10 Republicans who voted for impeachment... [View all]

...are still the most votes ever for impeachment from a President's own party.

Johnson had 0, Clinton had 5 (at the highest), Trump I had 0 although Amash who had recently switched from GOP to Independent voted for impeachment.

Nixon's charges never went to the full house floor, but the most Nixon got in committee from Republicans approving the charges was 7 votes.
