It backfired against the Republicans when they tried it on Clinton, but him getting blown by an intern was always a tempest in a teapot (bad form and creepy, but not a crime), which is why it didn't help the Republicans.
The question is, are these proceedings more like the ones against Nixon or like the one against Clinton?
More like Nixon. MUCH more like Nixon. Nixon tried to cover up the attempt to fix an election. Trump is trying to fix an election.
As I understand it, Mr. Clinton was impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice. No?
Boru
2 counts of perjury, and 1 each of abuse of power and obstruction of justice.
