"High crimes and misdemeanors"
The way Washington would see it is Old Nancy Drew and her band of crony thugs attempted to interfere with the 2020 Presidential election by using the impeachment process. Washington would consider this freakshow an attempt to prevent themselves from losing the election — treason. The only question going through his mind would be where to hang them as Christmas décor.
