Lewis Claims It Can't be a Coup Because Impeachment is Mentioned in the Constitution!

CNN's token Republican Matt Lewis has asserted on twitter that impeachment can not be considered a coup. On December 2 he tweeted:

"This impeachment is the exact opposite of a "coup". It is the triumph of the rule of law."

I wonder what Lewis would consider a coup? Nancy orders the sergeant of arms to arrest Trump and she takes over? Anything short of that is not a coup?

The constitution requires "Bribery, Treason or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors." to impeach a President. If that condition does not exist, the impeachment is unconstitutional, and the House is abusing its power.

As Democrat Rep. Jerry Nadler said yesterday, "We can't rely on an election to solve our problems." For Lewis and Nadler, Trump is the problem. He must be removed whether they meet the constitutional standard or not.

That is not a "triumph of the rule of law." That is a coup.
