Can the Sitting United States President Be Indicted?

Reportedly, when the Constitution is unclear on something, our leaders look to The Federalist Papers.

Here is an excerpt from the fourth paragraph of Federalist No. 69 by Alexander Hamilton:

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.


So: no.

  1. Impeachment
  2. Prosecution and punishment in the ordinary course of law

You can't indict the sitting President. If necessary, the President must be removed by impeachment first.

All those people on the TV are just going on and on about nothing.

I am still waiting for what they want to impeach him over...
The only thing I can think of, is beating a rigged election against a criminal opponent...
I say that because when they started singing that song... that is all that he did.


Trump encouraged his supporters to exercise their 2nd amendment rights on Hillary Clinton during the 2016 campaign. Therefore:

  1. Impeachment
  2. Prosecution and punishment in the ordinary course of law
  3. What Trump said (to himself)















I issue a congressional subpoena to you to show me the fully unredacted version of the Headkid report.
