This article is the first I’ve seen mentioning using the Article V convention to impeach Trump. Have I missed this as part of the current agenda?

I caught the author in a number of mistakes and false assumptions. That was one of them.

If you look at the Constitution, impeachment is left solely to Congress. The purpose of a Convention of the States is to formulate amendments to the Constitution of 1787 and nothing more. A convention has nothing to do with impeachment.

A Convention of the States can propose an amendment that would abolish the presidency as we know it, but it can't impeach anybody.
