How to Get Rid of a President

"The temptation to impeach a president can run high in a polarized political environment but is fraught with peril as David Priess meticulously demonstrates in this timely book that romps through American history to answer all the questions about removing an unfit president by non-electoral means that you were afraid to ask." (Amanda Carpenter, CNN contributor and author of Gaslighting America)

"Legal scholars, political scientists, and pundits have dissected various means of undermining and removing leaders, ranging from voting them out of office to impeaching them. Now, with How To Get Rid of a President, David Priess finally racks and stacks all of the methods, fair and foul, in an entertaining and approachable sweep of history." (Benjamin Wittes, senior fellow in governance studies at the Brookings Institution and editor in chief of the Lawfare blog)

"With the objective eye of a former intelligence officer and an uncanny instinct for deep truths, David Priess paints a genuinely non-partisan portrait of presidential removals. The stories here are eerily relevant to today's headlines, but also disarmingly fun to read." (Michael Hayden, former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency and author of The Assault on Intelligence)
