The legal politics of the presidential impeachment process prior to the amendment of the 1945 Constitution did not have a clear mechanism to impeach the president. The impeachment of the president is determined by the procedures and political power in the People's Consultative Assembly (MPR). This is a problem in the presidential system, because there is no legal process for impeaching the president. After the amendment to the 1945 Constitution, the concept of impeachment of the president was based on the idea of a presidential system, where the president cannot be dismissed only through a political process, but there must be a legal process first. Therefore, this article will explain how the dynamics of legal politics in the process of regulating the impeachment of the president in Indonesia in the 1945 Constitution. The research method used is normative juridical.
