(10,299 posts)Stating an opinion about the Supreme Court would not come remotely close to a valid reason for impeachment. Impeachment requires "Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors".
Stating an opinion is not treason, bribery or a high crime or misdemeanor. (see Ammendement 1 of the Constitution)

(192 posts)The President is showing OBVIOUS signs of multiple personality disorders and mental unfitness. This has NOTHING to do with Jeffries. He STILL doesn't understand the basics of how our government (We the People's government) actually works. Shame on those who are propping him up in office.

(181,375 posts)The president has no idea that members of Congress cant be impeached. Its emblematic of the profound ignorance that continues to undermine his presidency.
Trumpâs call for Republicans to impeach Hakeem Jeffries is absurd for a variety of obvious reasons, but I found myself stuck on one thing:
— Steve Benen (@stevebenen.com) 2026-05-04T17:17:39.854Z
Shouldnât a sitting president in his sixth year in the White House know that members of Congress canât be impeached?
www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...
https://www.ms.now/rachel-maddow-show/maddowblog/trump-wants-hakeem-jeffries-to-be-impeached-which-is-foolish-for-all-sorts-of-reasons
On Sunday afternoon, the president went even further down the same unfortunate path, with another online missive that said:
Hakeem Jeffries, a Low IQ individual, said our Supreme Court is illegitimate. After saying such a thing, isnt he subject to Impeachment? I got impeached for A PERFECT PHONE CALL. Where are you Republicans? Why not get it started? Theyll be doing this to me!
Lets unpack this one, which stood out for a variety of reasons.
First, criticizing the Supreme Court is not an impeachable offense. Second, if criticizing the Supreme Court were an impeachable offense, Trump would have a real problem on his hands, given the severity of his recent condemnations of the court and its justices. (It was just last month when the president said certain conservative justices on the Supreme Court have gone weak, stupid, and bad.)
Third, Trumps ongoing efforts to relitigate his first impeachment remain quite pitiful. Fourth, his theyll be doing this to me comment seemed like an implicit acknowledgement that he expects Republicans to lose control of the House in the midterm elections.
But even if we put all of these relevant details aside, arguably the five most interesting words in Trumps online statement were these: Isnt he subject to Impeachment?
As it happens, there is an unambiguous answer: In this country, members of Congress cannot, in fact, be impeached.
The thing is, a sitting American president really ought to know that. Trump no longer has any excuses for flunking Civics 101 tests, since hes no longer the rookie who got elected despite never having served a day in any governmental capacity. Trump is now in the sixth year of his presidency, and hes had time to familiarize himself with the basics of how Washington, D.C., works

(599 posts)If it was a perfect phone call he wouldn't have been put on trial with witnesses who testified that it was not "a perfect phone" call and Trump fired everyone who testified against him but never accused them of lying, just for being "disloyal."
