Except it does, quite intentionally: It was specifically created to prevent what happened to Nixon from ever happening again. He was forced to resign from the Presidency, or he was going to be impeached (by both Republican and Democratic Representatives) and convicted (by both Republican and Democratic Senators) for the crimes he commit and ordered while in office. And it worked, by ensuring the Republican base and politicians were in lockstep with each other as well as the policies supported by their major donors (such as Fox’s owners), so when another President commit extremely serious crimes in office the vote was almost entirely party-line.
