Republican excuses: Well, yes, it’s bribery, but even though the Constitution mentions bribery as an impeachable offense, it’s only possible that you could impeach a president for bribery if you really wanted to. But the Constitution doesn’t specifically say you HAVE to impeach the president for bribery, so we’re not going to impeach him.
