Big difference between lying about a blowjob and, well, the bribery, self-dealing and lying.

I never supported Clinton's impeachment but the guy lied under oath. Should he have been impeached for it? Not in my opinion but Republicans, who were interested in it for political reasons, went for it knowing full well that he would not be removed. Now Democrats are doing the same thing knowing full well that Trump will not be removed.

Trump is a real and present danger to the USA and global stability. He encourages corruption and bribery, has a fascination for dictatorships, and openly criticizes perceived domestic opponents and international allies. That is SO MUCH WORSE than what Clinton did that you discredit yourself by even comparing the two. [/quote]

I agree with this.  However, and I say this as a Democrat who voted for Clinton twice--[b]-the Dems support of Clinton regardless of the fact he lied under oath is what has now brought us down the slippery slope to the bottom feeding, utterly amoral sh^^bird who is our current president. [/b] With the benefit of hindsight, I now think that the Dems would have been better off to have forced Clinton to resign and had Al Gore become president.  Yes, Clinton's lying about his sexual peccadilloes with willing participants is nothing compared to Trump's determination to steer us into fascist corrupt autocracy.  And Trump's acceptance of Russian election interference and active extortion of Ukraine to smear his domestic political rival is EXACTLY the type of behavior to which Alexander Hamilton intended the impeachment clause apply.  But now the Republicans ---many of whom are either scared of their base or outright compromised by dirty NRA/Russian $$--are going to use the Democrats blind loyalty to Clinton despite his perjury as an excuse to acquit Trump---who in any sane universe should be removed immediately.

That is the dumbest, most blinkered take I’ve ever heard, bar none. No, the only reason Clinton was impeached in the 90s was because the GOP had already become the brain dead party we would all hate in the 2000s. The disgusting pigs (Gingrich, most notably) were already out of the bag.

Seriously, that’s a brain dead take that absolves th GOP of all responsibility.[/quote]
