Why sue? Can’t he just be arrested for criminal acts?

Probably no. Maybe if he shot somebody and there were witnesses, but even that’s unlikely. All of the enforcement arms report to him. He must be impeached by the House and tried by the Senate. Democrats would, who are in the majority in the Senate, would not vote to impeach even if he was stark-raving guano crazy. (In contrast, principled Republicans voted to impeach Nixon. When was there last a principled Democrat?)

Can he be arrested? Can the president be arrested if he commits a crime? I don’t know. I’ve always heard the only legal remedy is the impeachment process. Any Freepers who know please weigh in.

Eric Holder will get right on that.
