    I mean, I only every noticed quick impeachments happening after Trump was rightfully (in my opinion) impeached, and Biden took office. Since then, it has all been retaliation for impeaching Trump.

        Clinton should have been impeached for the ridiculous power imbalance but Repubs are pretty comfortable with rapey situations and full-on rapists so they went with something else.

          Only Republicans would say someone is unfit to run the country because they fucked their intern, and then hand the keys to a idiot so that he can fuck the country. I was making the point that the Republicans have always been like this.

            well that was not the reason. it was honestly sorta stupider. it was because during an investigation of questionable merit to begin with he lied to congress about his relationship with his intern. That is what they impeached on when the investigation completely cleared him of the original thing (whitewater).
