This first surfaced as a Democrat argument when Trump issued one of his first executive orders on immigration. A judge actually ruled that if Hillary Clinton had issued the exact same executive order it would be legal but since Trump had said some things about immigration that the Judge didn't like the Judge ruled that Trump's order was unConstitutional.
There's an old story about a Baltic state woman, Lithuania perhaps, who was asked what it was like living under the Nazi's and the Communist; which was worse. She said that the Communists were worse because if you did what the Nazi's told you they left you alone but the Communists demanded that you think what they wanted you to think.
The reality is of course that once we allow Democrats to declare that they can impeach a President because of this thoughts we'll never have another Republican President. Not because Republican Presidents will think evil thoughts but because Democrats will say that Republican Presidents think evil thoughts and not require any proof.
Of course since impeachment requires a crime if Trump can be impeached because while his actions were legal his reasons for those actions aren't approved of by the Democrats that means that any of us can be convicted not for what we did but for what we thought.
Given that Democrats firmly believe that anyone who objects to Democrats having dictatorial powers are racists, homophobes, and Nazi's we're all liable to be sent to jail if this new Democrat concept of guilt by thought is accepted.
