Why is it so difficult to impeach someone?

Answer: It is extremely difficult to impeach the president because the framers of the Constitution did not want political disputes to cause impeachments. So it will always have to be closely looked over. Many people confuse this too, to impeach means to accuse or bring charges, it does not mean to remove. Also in the end the house is the one that decides whether to impeach or not, if you read more on it, it is a very complicated process.
