    It’s civil the clause even specifically refers to civil officers, it’s a civil process like every other process don’t by the government. There is no such thing as a political process.

      It’s not civil because it doesn’t sit in the jurisdiction of a civil court or a court sitting in equity. Stop trying to use technical terms when you clearly have no grasp of their meaning.

      There is such thing as a political process and the doctrine behind it was laid out decades before you were born. If you’d care to learn about the topic there have been countless law review articles written on the subject.
