We haven't had a big foreign policy crises yet, perhaps precipitated by misuse or misunderstanding of intel. If Trump keeps blowing off briefings and dissing the Intel community, he might not know what he needs to when he has to make real time decisions which risks American lives.
Issuing an order that is later declared unconstitutional is not in itself grounds for impeachment. I think it happens if not often, then at least on occasion.
