Why did Federalists like Alexander Hamilton not want to place the impeachment process in the hands of the US Supreme Court?
ChuckSiata
Federalists like Alexander Hamilton and other Framers did discuss having the US Supreme Court handle the impeachment process. They believed as Hamilton did that the Court should not be involved. Actually, Hamilton wrote in the Federalist Papers, that impeachment was more than just an issue regarding the breaking of a law. Hamilton wrote that impeachment was primarily a political process to engage the interest of the entire US community.
