Well no, technically the president can use the military to stop impeachment. That would be considered an "official act" and they would be immune.

- citizen_friend 2y agoI think you’re imagining scenarios not supported in any of the written opinions.
- Miner49er 2y agoI don't see how. The President has immunity when acting with powers granted from the Constitution. Commanding the military is one of those powers. The majority opinion also specifically says motives can't be considered. So they are legally immune if they order the military to stop impeachment.
- mperham 2y agoDoesn't the Constitution also say that the military cannot operate domestically?
