Trump’s Former Impeachment Lawyer David Schoen Flips the Script: Uses Democrats’ Own Argument to Prove Obama Can Still Be Impeached, Stripped of Immunity, and Indicted for His Crimes
Gateway Pundit ^ | July 29, 2025 | Jim Hᴏft

President Trump’s former impeachment attorney David Schoen dropped a legal nuke on the legacy of Barack Obama — declaring that the 44th President of the United States can still be impeached, and if so, could lose his post-presidential immunity and face indictment for criminal conduct tied to the Russia Collusion hoax.

This explosive revelation came just days after President Trump remarked that Obama owed him “big” for the recent Supreme Court decision affirming presidential immunity for official acts committed while in office.

But Schoen isn’t letting Obama off the hook.

Let’s not forget — during their second failed impeachment attempt against Trump, Democrats moved the goalposts, claiming impeachment could apply even after a president leaves office.

They did this in a desperate bid to disqualify Trump from running again — a tactic that could now come back to haunt their golden boy, Barack Obama.

“President Trump is right when he said the immunity decision would help President Obama,” Schoen said on Newsmax. “But you know what it doesn’t help him with? Impeachment.”

Schoen pointed directly to Article I, Section 3, Clause 7 of the Constitution — the very clause that Democrats used during their second sham impeachment of President Trump to argue that a former president could still be tried and barred from holding office again. In doing so, they opened the door for the same standard to apply to Obama.

“According to the Democratic Party and the House managers in the second impeachment trial, a former President, once out of office, is still subject to impeachment,” Schoen explained.

“In other words, they’ve argued Lincoln could be impeached, George Washington impeached. Certainly, as I predicted at the time, this would come back — they would rue the day — because President Obama could be impeached if this evidence really says what it says. And that could also strip off the immunity, because under Article I, Section 3, Clause 7 of the Constitution, the Democrats argued it bars one from holding further office. The language itself says you’re still subject to criminal prosecution or indictment. We’ll see how that plays out.”

WATCH:

Constitutional watchdog and founder of the Article III Project Mike Davis recently told Benny Johnson in a separate interview that Obama has zero legal protection from prosecution for any criminal conduct after leaving office.

Mike Davis explained that presidential immunity only protects actions taken while someone is actively serving as President.

Once they’re no longer in office, they lose that protection. So, if a former president is involved in a criminal cover-up after leaving office, they can be held legally accountable—immunity no longer applies.

This comes on the heels of newly declassified documents released by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, which allegedly show Barack Obama personally orchestrated the Russia Collusion Hoax.

Best to leave Obama alone and go after his minions, along with Hillary. One of them will rat out Obama to save their own necks. We are doing much better with the black vote. By going after Obama directly, we could lose the relationship which took decades to achieve. By getting a white liberal creep to talk, you now sow total distrust of democrats.

That’s how you win wars.

Where are the “republican” prosecutors to bring charges against the Obamatons and Bidenistas? Trump faced every crooked prosecutor in blue s holes. There has to be some to return the favor to the democrats.

“”Where are the “republican” prosecutors to bring charges against the Obamatons and Bidenistas? Trump faced every crooked prosecutor in blue s holes. There has to be some to return the favor to the democrats.””

Ah... a question we are all asking. The problem is... now that some of this stuff, which most of us already suspected, is being exposed... the Trump team DOJ, FBI, etc., are stuck. If they do nothing about it, they lose support from the right. If they do proceed with indictments or even attempt to go after the Democrat perps now, they might lose support of the Independents and might even lose the court cases, depending upon which area of the country the case is tried in. If in DC, it’s a no-brainer that they would probably lose.

It’s a Catch-22... a dilemma and a trap. They might be hunkered down, laying low and hiding right about now... and pretending to be focused on “other issues”, would be my guess.

I just don’t see how they can NOT proceed with the obviously required indictments and prosecutions. This nation is supposed to be founded on justice and equality. Letting the perps get away with it... just because they’re not on the right side of the political aisle... would be a death sentence for any semblance of “fairness, equality and justice” in America’s future. Just my perspective.

It (prosecuting the Obamatons and Bidens) doesn’t have to be directed by Trump and the feds. Fannie, Fat Alvin, Trish. They were all county DAs and brought up ridiculous charges. The E Jean Carroll farce was absolutely ridiculous and they colluded with just the state government to temporarily change existing statute of limitations just so her thugs could file the lawsuit. There’s gotta be someone, somewhere, in a county where the democrats committed crimes, real or not (the precedent is established) and throw the book at them.

Fantasy, I know.

I’m all for throwing the proverbial book at the leftist perps. I’ve witnessed them skate any and all legal accountability for decades, however... all because of that magic “D” that seems to have saved every damned one of them from receiving the justice they so richly deserve. All their crimes, including murder, have gone unpunished. Yet still I dream...

and for the record, I share the same fantasy.

Will Trump end up being our hero and accomplish what we previously thought as the improbable, if not the impossible? Only time will tell.

What Obama did wasn’t within the scope of his Executive duties. Organizing a conspiracy of government officials to commit treason within your own country isn’t in a President’s job description or one of the official Executive rights or privileges granted by the U.S. Constitution. It’s called high crimes and misdemeanors.

It amazes me that on a Constitutional web site, a lot of posters deny that a private citizen can be impeached (and convicted).

The Senate has punishments other than removal from office at its disposal - disqualification from holding any “office of trust or profit under the United States” being one very important one.

The history of impeachment begins with the procedure as a way for the Bouse of Commons to block appointments by the King without defying the King directly.

Let’s be real.
The house can impeach Obama but the Senate will never convict Obama.
Those that vote to impeach or convict will pay someway some how

UNLESS, they make obama the sacrificial lamb and find it beneficial for some reason to throw him under the bus.
