“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.”





Right, it is up to congress to get him removed from office through impeachment and then allow for a criminal trial to take place. That is the method available to provide check and balances of a president. SFP knows this, but he wants the DOJ to be able to bring a president up on charges and trial even as a sitting president.
