[Read by Dan Woren]In the fall 2016, Distinguished Professor of History at American University Allan Lichtman made headlines when he predicted that Donald J. Trump would defeat the heavily favored Democrat, Hillary Clinton, to win the presidential election.Now, in this powerful call to arms, Lichtman illuminates exactly how Trump might be removed from office by showing how his actions -- past or future -- make him uniquely vulnerable to impeachment proceedings.In unequivocal terms, Lichtman lays out the reasons Congress could remove Trump from the Oval Office: his possible ties to Russia before and after the election; the complicated financial conflicts of interest at home and abroad involving the Trump empire; and the numerous civil suits in which Trump is implicated.The Case for Impeachment also offers a fascinating look at presidential impeachments throughout American history, including the often-overlooked story of Andrew Johnson's impeachment, little-known details about Richard Nixon's resignation, and Bill Clinton's hearings -- showing how Trump exhibits many of the flaws (and more) that have doomed past presidents. As the Nixon Administration dismissed the reporting of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein as ''character assassination'' and ''a vicious abuse of the journalist process,'' Trump has attacked the ''dishonest media,'' claiming, ''the press should be ashamed of themselves.''Historians, legal scholars, and politicians alike agree: we are in politically uncharted waters the durability of our public institutions are being undermined and the public s confidence in them is eroding, threatening American democracy itself.Most citizens politics aside want to know where the country is headed. In clear nonpartisan terms, The Case for Impeachment makes it not a question of if President Trump will be impeached, but a question of when.
