“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?)

Sir, the following is a quote from “Answers”:

..............”Nixon resigned to avoid being impeached; the Judicial Committee of the House had already agreed to it, and it looked likely that the Senate would convict him if the impeachment went ahead.”.............

You are partially correct though. Several Republicans met with Nixon and not only told him he would be “convicted” if impeached but that many republicans would vote for it including the ones sitting in front of him at the meeting. Contrast that to the scum Democrats today who quite literally would not vote convict Obama if there was a video of him committing murder.

There hasn't been a principled Democrat since they adopted the American Communist Party's intellectual property nearly 70 years ago. Obama could be molesting boy scouts, burning bibles and calling for a world caliphate and the Democrats (and big media) would still have their morbid case of fellating syncophany for the man.
