What is one method by which a U.S. President can be removed from office?

The method by which a U.S. President can be removed from office is through impeachment by Congress. This process is outlined in the Constitution, specifically in Article II, Section 4, which states that the President, Vice President, and all civil officers of the United States can be impeached for "Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors."

Impeachment begins in the House of Representatives, where members can bring forth charges against the President. If a simple majority of the House votes to impeach, the President is formally charged. The process then moves to the Senate, which holds a trial to determine whether to convict and remove the President from office. A two-thirds majority in the Senate is required for the removal to occur.

In contrast, other options do not accurately represent the constitutional mechanisms for presidential removal. A public referendum is not a constitutionally recognized method for removing a President. Similarly, while the Supreme Court has significant authority in interpreting laws, it does not have the power to remove a President from office. Lastly, while the Senate plays a crucial role in the impeachment process, a simple majority vote in the Senate does not suffice for removal; it requires a two-thirds majority after an impeachment trial
