Not much in the long run. Short-term, it made him more cautious about opposing Congressional Reconstruction, but as his term had in any case only nine months left to run, the effect was marginal.

Basically, the impeachment was something of a "temper tantrum" on the part of Congressional Republicans, with little real significance.
