Trump Told Fox & Friends Obama Could 'Certainly' Be Impeached for 2014 Immigration Executive Action

Donald Trump is expected to declare a national emergency to fund his border wall, but in a 2014 interview, he flatly told Fox & Friends that then-President Barack Obama “could certainly be impeached” for taking executive action on immigration.

During a November 24, 2014 interview, the subject of impeaching Obama came up, and co-host Peter Johnson, Jr. asked Trump “Has the president done something worthy of impeachment, and should he be impeached?”

“I think he certainly did something that was unconstitutional, now it depends on Justice Roberts, if he wants to just curry favor in the beltway like he did with Obamacare, because that’s the only reason he did, it because he knows he was wrong,” Trump replied.

“But it certainly depends on what happens,” Trump continued. “I mean, I think certainly he could be impeached.”
