Best Answer

The legislative branch has the power to impeach (or to bring charge[s] against) the president. The House of Representatives votes on whether to impeach the president. If the vote is to impeach, there is a trial before the Senate acting like a jury, with the Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court presiding over the matter like a judge at a trial.

Everybody! For example: the government, people, etc. Also it's very unusual if a president commits any crimes because he wouldn't be a good president then..
