Madison said explicitly that a president has the legal authority to offer pardons. But if POTUS told people to commit crimes and then pardoned them, that would be impeachable. What if POTUS decided to get drunk and watch TV all day, everyday. Not a crime, def impeachable.https://twitter.com/JonahDispatch/status/1221978795588182016 …

Anything is an impeachable offense if you get enough votes. Any suggestion to the contrary misunderstands how this process works.

How about just... moving to a log cabin off the grid and refusing to perform any of his duties? Not a crime, nor incompetence...

If incompetence was impeachable Jimmy Carter wouldn't of made it four years. I like Jimmy, and he's got a lot of character and integrity. Never should of had a leadership position, wrong personality. Being a Naval Academy grad, never would of suspected that. But was.

The second example is oath breaking: "preserve, protect, and defend the constitution." That strikes me as impeachable... or at least solvable with trial by combat.

The message doesn’t fit his narrative so he acts out. Typical tell for knowing he’s lost the case.

Second example sounds like a reason to utilize the 25th amendment process - NOT impeachment. Dersh is correct, impeachment is part of our law, not “whatever congress wants”. They can change the law, propose an amendment.

The second part would be similar to Woodrow Wilson after his stroke. It would be covered under sec 4 of the 25th amendment.
