Don't even need hypotheticals. For Nixon and Clinton they were confronted with POTUS saying "but I'm POTUS and I don't wanna" and the Court said a polite variant of "sit the fuck down, Mr President, you are not a King". But if you want to overthrow the Republic? "Why, yes, your majesty, go for it"

Excellent skeet. And I can still hear David Cannadine in my left ear saying, "George the Third was mad, bad, sad, and intransigent" thirty-five years ago in the lecture hall.
