Watergate II: A Road To Impeachment

[Pat Mustard]

I'm not sure I understand. Half the nation is already disenfranchised. The other half are holding them by the balls. Just think of the trees, and how many of them are soon to be pulped, for soon to be published books, by the I told you so's.
We are about to live in interesting times.

I'm talking as in Jim Crow or "A protestant parliament for a protestant people", i.e. literally denying the right to vote to citizens because of their race, their religion, their educational status and because of their voting patterns. It's already at an advanced stage, with at least 10 million citizens in the 2016 election being denied the right to vote or having their vote thrown out because they marked Clinton.

Clear to me at least, once conviction for impeachment became a very believable outcome, Nixon bailed.  Clinton, OTOH, was always aware of how the vote was shaping up and concluded (correctly) the 'pubs were over playing their hand and rode it out.

Trump  won't follow either tack, IMO, but I am less sure what his strategerie would be.

Bill Clinton toughed it out mainly because there wasn't a case there. The original plan behind the Republitraitor push for impeachment was to find criminal behaviour behind Whitewater (specifically the more swivel eyed loons thought the Clintons had had Vince Foster murdered), but when that turned out to be a damp squib, Starr pounced on the Lewinsky issue, which was neither a criminal offence nor an impeachable action (even after Bill lied about the affair).
