Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist
The president would be tried by the senate, and the chief justice of the supreme court would be the judge.
In the event that the Senate votes to remove a president through the impeachment process, the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court acts as the presiding officer and effectively acts as the judge during the trial. The Chief Justice ensures that the proceedings follow proper legal procedures and that all parties are afforded due process.

The presiding officer of the Senate or an appointed "Impeachment Trial Committee" would preside, or act as judge, and the other Senators would serve as the jury.This procedure is used for the removal trial of allofficials except the US President, and became legal practice in 1986 when the Senate amended its rules and procedures for impeachment trials. The Chief Justice of the Supreme Court only presides over the impeachment trial of a US President.
