Yes. But the Constitution gives the House the sole power to define just what those terms mean. As an example, Benjamin Franklin once remarked that a President could legally be impeached just for being rude!

This isn’t really about impeachment. It’s about damaging Pres. Trump. There can be accusations day after day during some hearings or press conference etc., supplemented by the occasional fake news leak.
