Bryan Fischer here. According to the Constitution, impeachments are for sitting precedents. But Donald Trump is not a sitting president. You cannot remove somebody who is already gone. You cannot impeach a private citizen, which is what Donald Trump is. This is why Chief Justice John Roberts refused to preside over this farce of a trial. Although Trump is charged with the crime of incitement, his speech to supporters on January 6 did not come close to meeting the legal definition of incitement, which requires a direct exhortation to violence. But Trump’s exhortation was for his supporters to make their voices heard “peacefully and patriotically.” You cannot impeach a former president for exercising his First Amendment right to freedom of speech. Everything is wrong about this trial, and nothing is right. The sooner it’s over, the better.
