A
Clinton was forced to leave office.
B
Clinton decided to resign to avoid impeachment.
C
Clinton was acquitted on both counts.
D
Clinton was found guilty on both counts.

Explanation

The House impeached President Bill Clinton, but impeachment is not the same as removal from office. The Senate held a trial and did not reach the two-thirds vote needed to convict him on either count, so Clinton was acquitted on both counts.
