Feldman says without impeachment we would live in a monarchy or dictatorship
Noah Feldman of Harvard Law School testified in front of the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday that, without the ability to impeach a president, we would not have democracy. "The abuse of power occurs when the president uses his office for personal advantage or gain," Feldman said. "That matters fundamentally to the American people because if we cannot impeach a president who abuses his office for personal advantage, we no longer live in a democracy, we live in a monarchy or we live under a dictatorship."
