To be fair, there may be a handful of people who share your view.

I suggest you fire up Google and seek out what an “Articles of Impeachment” document contains.

The Articles document is the work product of committees’ investigations. It will in explain, in detail, the reasoning behind the impeachment.

Then the house votes on the Articles. If there is a majority, then the Articles will be delivered to the Senate who will decide to vote on a holding a hearing.
