About this audiobook
NATIONAL BESTSELLER
“Lichtman has written what may be the most important book of the
year.” —The Hill
What are
the ranges and limitations of presidential authority? What are the standards of
truthfulness that a president must uphold? What will it take to impeach Donald J. Trump? Professor Allan J.
Lichtman, who has correctly forecasted thirty years of presidential outcomes, answers
these questions, and more, in The Case for Impeachment—a deeply convincing
argument for impeaching the 45th president of the United States.
In the fall of 2016, Allan J. 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 clear, nonpartisan
terms, Lichtman lays out the reasons Congress could remove Trump from the Oval
Office: his ties to Russia before and after the election, the complicated
financial conflicts of interest at home and abroad, and his abuse of executive
authority.
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,
details about Richard Nixon’s resignation, and Bill Clinton’s hearings.
Lichtman shows 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 journalistic 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 institutions is 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. Lichtman
argues, with clarity and power, that for Donald Trump’s presidency, smoke has
become fire.
