Apparently our wonderful justices on the SC, Republicans included, seemed to forget the plain reading of the Constitution addressing High Crimes and Misdemeanors, which as we know, means whatever Congress determines it means and thus, would cover any act by a President, criminal or civil. If Congress were to find a President guilty and then remove he/she from office, the President would then be liable for criminal prosecution. We did this with Nixon, which is why he was subject to prosecution after he resigned. Conversely, if a President is found Not Guilty after their impeachment trial, then end of story. This is not hard. We all learned this in 8th grade Civics. Unfortunately, like everything else, our political and judicial system has been corrupted beyond repair.
