Now, in clear, nonpartisan\u003cbr\u003eterms, Lichtman lays out the reasons Congress could remove Trump from the Oval\u003cbr\u003eOffice: his ties to Russia before and after the election, the complicated\u003cbr\u003efinancial conflicts of interest at home and abroad, and his abuse of executive\u003cbr\u003eauthority.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Case for Impeachment \u003c\/em\u003ealso\u003cbr\u003eoffers a fascinating look at presidential impeachments throughout American\u003cbr\u003ehistory, including the often-overlooked story of Andrew Johnson's impeachment, \u003cbr\u003edetails about Richard Nixon's resignation, and Bill Clinton's hearings.\u003cbr\u003eLichtman shows how Trump exhibits many of the flaws (and more) that have doomed\u003cbr\u003epast presidents.
