In nine short pages, House Democrats spelled out two articles of impeachment they plan to vote on in the coming weeks, accusing President Trump of having abused his power and “betrayed the nation” by attempting to enlist Ukraine in “corrupting democratic elections.”
The first article accused Mr. Trump of having “corruptly solicited” election assistance from the government of Ukraine in the form of investigations that would smear his political rivals. The second one charged him with obstructing the impeachment inquiry by blocking witnesses and documents that House Democrats requested.

Stopping witnesses from testifying isn't what Trump did
These are house circus performances. Executive privilege is recognized even across the judicial branch.
A trial it will be because that's it takes to work around a bunch of criminals in places they shouldn't be.
An innocent man would not need to do such a thing. But, it's clear, that Trump is not an innocent man.
What congressional process?
since he couldn't be called as a witness
There were plenty of actual witnesses.
When you get charged with a crime, try calling the judge as a witness.
