On what grounds? The emoluments clause? And every member of Congress is supposed to risk being held to the same standard? Yeah, sure.

The only other specific thing mentioned in the article was the Jan 6 pardons, which wasn't criminal. The president has that power. Maybe Congress could consider whether to revoke that power, but as it stands now, Trump did nothing wrong under the law when he issued those pardons.

I'm no defender or supporter of Trump The guy is a turd. He's motivated only by what feeds his bank account and/or ego. But this article is bullshit. Impeaching Trump for either of those reasons is a joke. Particularly after all the talk of Trump politicizing the Justice Department to attack his rivals.
