Republican Texas Governor Rick Perry indicted.

People comment on court cases all the time.   I happen to believe this move by the congress to sue the President is nothing but an attempt to appease the right wing of the Republican party, the ones who are calling for impeachment.   Boehner knows impeachment would go nowhere and probably backfire, so he's suing to president to appease the right wing.   The voters and various members of the media can judge it however they want to.   What I am saying is, if you really think you have a case, bring a case.   There's the court of public opinion and there's the Supreme Court; those are two different things.   Just because I, or the media or the democrats don't think highly of the effort, that doesn't mean you can't do it.  The Constitutional method of resolving this is to get the Supreme Court to rule.   Then, if he ignores the Supreme Court, that is a crime and you can impeach him for it.  

 

But you cannot force him to resign unless you impeach him and even then he may not resign.  You might still have to get a conviction in the impeachment case.   No President except Nixon has ever resigned, and he resigned because he was about to get impeached and probably convicted.   Clinton got impeached and did not resign, probably because he knew he would be acquitted.
