Reply to BumRushDaShow (Original post)

Bill Clinton was impeached, after years of very expensive digging produced nothing but his lie about sexual misconduct, because

Nixon was proven, on his own tapes, to be a crook. Nixon was on the verge of self-impeaching.

Trump was impeached because of his own words, his own "transcript", his own actions, which violated his oath of office and threaten the fairness of our next election. As Nancy Pelosi pointed out, he self-impeached.

importance of elections blahblah. Twisting the meaning of the Franklin quote "It's a Republic, if you can keep it" to "It's a Republic, if they let us keep it."

"This should end as quickly as possible!"

That was pathetic.
