I was going to write about how important the Impeachment check is specifically when it comes to the President. It's really the most important check/balance that we have because it is the only branch of government that is concentrated into a single person. The temptation to make yourself a dictator can be too strong for some.

The Founding Fathers are rolling in their graves right now.
