If it comes to light that he ordered spying on the rival campaign and then the president elect....you are damn right he could be prosecuted and impeached to keep him from elected office in the future....So, honestly.Can a former president be impeached?
Apparently, yes. Obviously a former president would not be subject to removal from office, but scholars say that Article I, Section 3 of the Constitution, which says that impeachment may result in “disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States,” could apply. In practical terms, an impeachment would mean Clinton could not serve in any other federal elective or appointive office. Clinton would not have automatic protection against such a proceeding because he was exercising his constitutionally given pardon power. Scholars say abuse of such power can be grounds for congressional action. It is less clear whether a conviction could mean the removal of his pension, government-funded office, and other perks.
Can Congress Impeach Bill Clinton Again?
Do you see this congress impeaching Obama?
If not, then why is this a topic?
His retirement, medical, and SS detail go bye bye if impeached. Indeed he can be, and he damn sure should be. What about trading 5 terrorist leaders in exchange for a traitor? What about Muslim Brotherhood sleepovers in the White House? What's up with that?
