Repulsed by the ‘lynching’ scandal? Just wait for the impeachment trial | TheHill

By Thomas A. Smith

As I have said before, there is no question that the use of public office for personal gain is an impeachable offense, including the withholding of military aid in exchange for the investigation of a political opponent. You just have to prove it happened. If you can establish intent to use public office for personal gain, you have a viable impeachment offense. The problem then becomes not the charge but the members of jury.
