A Lesson Unlearned from Bill Clinton About Impeachment
Let’s impeach President Trump. Right now. Immediately.
Impeachment doesn’t mean Trump leaves office. Ask Bill Clinton. Speaking of, find an old die-hard Bill Clinton fan. We all know them. There is always a relative, friend, or whatever, that thinks Bill Clinton walked on water, blue dress in hand. Ask that die-hard about Bill Clinton.
Bill Clinton, in other words, is not just a former President, for some he is a folk hero. The same people that bought into his faux name (he was born Billy Blythe) and faux birthplace (no, he was not the kid from “Hope”; he was born and raised in a town close to Hope, Arkansas), and all his psuedo-folksyisms (his twang may have sounded country but his ideological mindset was far left as evidenced from his own writings), think Clinton met “the man” head on and won.
The whole of Bill Clinton’s impeachment was the biggest political miscalculation one party (Republicans) made against another (Democrats) in a generation.
So go for it Democrats, impeach President Trump. Make that miscalculation. I dare you. I’ll even support you.
Because what we need is a Donald Trump that emerges larger than the Presidency. We need a Donald Trump that is a folk hero — a Donald Trump generations to come can point to as an example of what happens (i.e., impeachment) to anyone that dares stand up versus the media and deep state.
