2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The recall process in the United States was designed by the state's founders to hold high-ranking officials accountable for their actions, including the president.
  • The grounds for revocation set out in the US Constitution are general and include bribes, treason and so-called grave misdeeds and transgressions.
  • For a president to be removed from office, the hands of two-thirds of the House of Representatives in the Upper House (Senate) are required.
