Let’s say Democrats gain control of the House and Senate in a couple of weeks, with a majority of Americans demanding accountability, and an airtight list of high crimes and misdemeanors as long as your arm. Should Democrats impeach Trump on Day One? Frank Bowman is an expert in both the law and politics of the impeachment process who has analyzed the first two efforts to impeach and remove President Trump during his first term. But in the wake of an extensive study of our current moment, Professor Bowman tells Dahlia Lithwick that the president’s crimes are definitely impeachable—but acute polarization and tribalism may be insurmountable obstacles to Congress actually using the Framers’ last-ditch check against an autocratic president.
