Should President Trump Be Impeached? Part One


Listen Later

This week, the National Constitution Center hosted a timely two-part discussion of impeachment. In panel one, leading constitutional scholars break down the facts at the center of the current impeachment inquiry, and share their thoughts on what the Framers of the Constitution might think of whether those facts rise to the level of an impeachable offense under their conception of and the definition of impeachment. They also share their own views on whether or not the President should be impeached. Tune back in next week to hear panel two, featuring current and former members of Congress who also debate how they would vote on whether or not to impeach.

Panel one features:

  • Michael Gerhardt – National Constitution Center Scholar in Residence, CNN impeachment expert, and professor at UNC Law School
  • Keith Whittington – professor of politics at Princeton University
  • Kimberly Wehle – professor at the University of Baltimore School of Law and CBS News legal analyst
  • John Malcolm – Vice President of the Institution for Constitutional Government at Heritage 
  • Moderator: Jeffrey Rosen – National Constitution Center President
