“If the president fired Comey because he had asked for loyalty and hadn’t gotten it, because he had asked him to ease off on the investigation of Flynn, because in effect he was asking him to ease off on the investigation of possible collusion by the Trump campaign with the Russians in subverting the election, that would be obstruction of justice, which is an impeachable offense,” Rep. Jerry Nadler, said in an interview on CNN.
Citizen led Trump impeachment method.
Rules of the House of Representatives stipulate citizens can initiate it.
