“The President of the United States would be liable to be impeached, tried, and, upon conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes or misdemeanors, removed from office; and would afterwards be liable to prosecution and punishment in the ordinary course of law.”
This is what I have argued in other threads independent of this Alexander Hamilton quote. It just makes logical sense.
I know deep state operatives would love to have the administrative state as a check against the executive, and many in congress would love to abdicate that power, but without congress maintaining that power the office of the president is just a Christmas tree ornament as we are ruled by unelected bureaucrats.

Robert Barnes said on a podcast last year (I think it was The Duran) that's what his view of the documents case is. The administrative state wants to be able to dictate what people can see, how it is handled, and they give no deference to the executive. Everything is built to keep secrets for them.
