Hundreds of college professors, referring to themselves as “American historians,” have signed a letter begging the U.S. House of Representatives to impeach President Donald Trump, claiming that the president has “violated his oath” and citing his “brazen contempt” for the government. The signees even suggest that Alexander Hamilton himself would disagree with the president’s “private life” as a reason for impeachment.
“We are American historians devoted to studying our nation’s past who have concluded that Donald J. Trump has violated his oath,” proclaim nearly 600 professors in a letter to Congress attempting to justify the impeachment of the sitting President of the United States.
In the letter, the signees insist that President Trump’s impeachment is “urgently and justly” required, and claim that the president is guilty of “attempts to subvert the Constitution,” adding that Alexander Hamilton and other framers of the U.S. Constitution would agree.
As of early Tuesday afternoon, 752 so-called “American historians” have signed the letter published on Monday — nearly 600 of whom are listed as college professors.
The group goes on to claim that President Trump has engaged in “lawless obstruction of the House of Representatives,” and accuse the president of having “demonstrated brazen contempt for representative government.”
They also claim that if President Trump had his way, he “would turn the [presidency] into an elected monarch above the law.”
As for the president’s alleged impeachable offenses, the group regurgitates the hearsay utilized by House Democrats in the impeachment hearings, claiming that President Trump has withheld military funding from Ukraine in exchange for favors.
“Among those most hurtful to the Constitution have been his attempts to coerce the country of Ukraine, under attack from Russia, an adversary power to the United States, by withholding essential military assistance in exchange for the fabrication and legitimization...

I’d like to know the names of these professors and what college they teach in, the better to advise my friends and family NOT to waste their money srnding their kids to these schools.
Can’t remember the number they used, but Democrats did this exact same thing during Bubbas impeachment
“X00 scholars claim the charges are not impeachable offenses”
And Clinton and the Dem talking heads waved that around like they were long lost sacred scrolls
I’d like to know the names of these professors and what college they teach in, the better to advise my friends and family NOT to waste their money sending their kids to these schools.
Is there a list of these professors? I could not find it.
These college professors get six figure incomes for TRASHING America. They teach kids to be gay, (fags and lezzies) and they act so important. These punks “damn sure are not” the praetorium guard.”
That old axiom that those who don’t know how to do something teach college comes to mind here. I had a few of them as instructors at the U of A. I was also fortunate enough to have professors who made a great impact on the engineering profession prior to teaching.
Shows you what Leftist dirtbags most ‘professors’ are.....They all need to be excised from the educational institutions across this country and replaced with de ent people
I had the best of history professors at Bama. He was very critical of his profession.
“Hundreds Of Professors Sign Letter Begging Congress To Impeach Trump”
this says way more about our putative “education” system than about President Trump ...
I taught one semester at a JC and the liberalism from the faculty was hard to stomach. It is no wonder the young today coming out of the colleges are ignorant of facts and spew the rhetoric of the left. These so called “historians” are proof of the weighted bias of the “professors” at colleges today.
Trump continues to have all the right enemies.
Hundreds?
They didn’t try very hard... I bet 90% of kollege perfessers would sign it if they had a chance.
Not that it matters, because anyone who respects the opinions of kollege perfessers in general anymore, is living way in the past.
College professors are a bunch of overpaid, arrogant morons that never had a real job(see professional politicians)
Nice of them to make a target list.
Does everyone realize how much each of these professors earn? They are the swamp.
Nice of them to put their names on the list.
Yep, the race-studies and intersectional pan-sexual film professors seem to not like Trump, for some reason
Re College professors: Is there anything they don’t know?
Well, I’ll leave my SARC sign alone for a while and say that Leftist historians are as dishonest as leftist politicians and they are almost always Democrats.
Facts, logical, honesty,rationality and sanity are not on their CVs.
Thanks fieldmarshaldj.
