For the last time.
A sitting president cannot be indicted. That's straight from the Mueller report, and also backed up by Attorney General Barr.
"The only tool is impeachment."
FFS.
Due process? Trump was happily invited to testify in his own defense. Produce documents, or witnesses, in his own defense. He did none of the above, instead relying on Senators much smarter than himself to provide his defense. And they did. Congratulations.

Mooby, it is a false allegation to say the only tool is impeachment. If that were the case it would have been used more than 4 times in our country's history. AND in 1 of those cases(Andrew Jackson), the Congress wrote into the law that violating the statute was a high misdemeanor (meaning impeachable), and they still didn't remove him from office. And this was after a civil war, and after the Senate passed the statute in question by a 2/3rd vote. Meaning enough Senator's passed the legislation that the President violated to guarantee his removal. The President still broke the statute, and the removal failed because
not 1 of the Senators from the President's party voted against him even though they voted for the Tenure Act.
Clearly there are dozens of other remedies, including going through the full steps at the House level.
