'Impeachment is not about punishment. Impeachment is about cleansing the office. Impeachment is about restoring honor and integrity to the office,' then-Rep. Lindsey Graham said amid impeachment proceedings against then-President Clinton.

Yes.

And Graham was absolutely correct. Then.

Well let’s face it. BillClinton went on National TV and lied to our faces. He had an affair while in the Oval Office. He is a joke.

Did you know a large group of baboon's is called a Congress? That explains a lot now doesn't it.

Whistling a different tune now.

No double standard. What crime has Trump committed?

Cleansing is about colon health. Usually.

LindseyGrahamSC ...is an insecure, loud mouth, parasite.. that latched on to Vietnam War Hero SenJohnMcCain ... Shortly he won't be able to.. wAc

Everyone knows that the Democrats were going to try and impeach President Trump versus working with him for the GREATER good of America. They said it. As much as they are blaming him, makes me wonder what do they have to hide and what have they done? No one is perfect

impeach to thwart we the voters' will? go ahead, make our day--we the voters' day. dont count us out, our will is supreme. its an insane fantasy: need evidence of a crime; need 2/3 of senate; we the voters will never allow such abuse. all u r doing is alienate us we the voters.

“... unless you’re a Republican. Then you’re pretty much a king as far as the Right is concerned!” HypocriteGraham VoteTheseBastardsOut

WHAAAAAAHHHH

I have decided that Graham has qualified as THE WORST LEADER EVER. H e just sucks.

Graham was talking about S.T.D.'s in the Oval Office from Bill and Monica . That was the cleansing he was talking about . Not the typical crap Trump goes through on a daily basis . 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😜😜😝😝😲😲.

There’s a lot of double standards on both sides of the aisle

And Congress has to have evidence to impeach a president...not hear say, I want to, and I hate him don't count for impeachment.

That double standard is gross & shameful.

Live by the double standard is their motto, isn't it?

And yet Clinton reminded President until the end of his term. All that money and time wasted and nothing was changed. Just a lot of spouting of and no action. Congress should learn from it’s history. But nah~hey don’t

Because Clinton had a 21-year-old intern give him blow jobs in the Oval Office. There’s not enough cleanser in the world to undo the damage Bill Clinton did. You may quote me.

Go ahead, impeach him; worked out great for Clinton. Oh, and what was that crime he’s guilty of again?

Because Clinton perjured himself. Not to mention disrespectful and disgusting acts in the Oval Office committing adultery.

Clinton WAS charged and HAD committed ELEVEN FXCKING CRIMES. You fxcking GEEK. TRUMP CRIMES= ZERO

1000 toys displayed outside Michigan church to illustrate impact of Trump's family separation policy

Modern day attempts at impeachment have been used by the opposition party to invalidate elections because they don't like the person elected. IE. Clinton Trump. With a 50-50 country, it will never happen and would be disastrous to the U.S. and world economy.

Maybe this would help!!!

And the current Office of President needs a cleansing and a fumigation....the sooner the better.

Impeachment is about cleansing! There is NOTHING more important right now than stopping Trump and the Republicans from making America an autocracy.

Guess who said this during the Clinton impeachment? “There must never be a narrowly-voted impeachment or an impeachment supported by one of our major political parties and opposed by the other,”. RepJerryNadler

Every....every Repug.... forgot what they said during 'Clinton'! Shameful that they continue to back a liar!

Doomsday move for panicky Libs Fun to watch!!! Landslide 2020 MAGA

Clinton was found guilty in a court of law. The House does not find guilt fools. That’s why they won’t impeach...losers

Guess who said this during the Clinton impeachment? “However, I am greatly disappointed in the raw, unmasked, unbridled hatred and meanness that drives this impeachment coups d’etat, this unapologetic disregard for the voice of the people.” RepMaxineWaters

If that is the case you should have done that 4 years ago. The Obama office needed a REAL Cleansing. NOW it is up to MY potus to do just that by getting rid of the Obama hold overs.

These have been best 1258 constitutional crises of our lives the economy is booming, tax cuts, media exposed, jobs galore, this is a great time to be American, trumps freaking rocks look how stupid our politicians look doing nothing for America all these years

Graham condemn himself with his own words. He is a sleazy sycophant

No one talking about this I wonder why

It’s time to cleanse the WhiteHouse ! NEVER has ITV been more soiled!

It’s not the double standard is the Shameless malice that LindseyGrahamSC and the Republicans have shown Ed is just the actions that destroys good democracies.

It's American People holding him accountable for not performing his duties as POTUS, his Oath to defend UPHOLD the Constitution frm Foreign and Domestic Threats. Impeachment hearings shed light on the Facts before actual Trial of Impeachment. StayFree

Guess who said this during Clinton impeachment? “History will show that we have lowered the bar on impeachment so much. We have broken the seal on this extreme penalty, so cavalierly, that it will be used as a routine tool to fight political battles. SenSchumer

Impeachment isn't going to work. I hope you try it just so you can fail at it and we move on to the next thing. Also, didn't Clinton remain in office after he got impeached? I remember hearing something about that. Doesn't seem like an effective way to remove a President.

LindseyGrahamSC RepublicansForImpeachment

I can hardly wait to see how many more people start swirling down the drain pipe… DrainTheSwamp

Trump's case is totally different, he has broken no laws.

This is not a valid argument, every single one in both parties are hypocrites. Every last one of them

To MSNBC, find a crime!!!!! And, not obstruction Saying what you want and doing it Are 2 different things😡

Impeach for what?

And LORD knows it does need cleansing! Holy oil and all!

because a consensual blow job is WAY more important than dismantling the country.

What was your payoff LindseyGrahamSC? You've exposed yourself as 100% corrupt and forgot you're a civil SERVANT to the American people. Btw, GTH.

Then we should have impeached Obama. Trump is fixing those problems and expelling those liars and cheats - DRAIN THE SWAMP. MSM is also responsible to get the truth out but has severely failed the America public. GET HONEST!!!!!

Tell us something we don't already know.

This was perfectly stated. Too bad graham has also been exposed to be a hypocrite.

Wonder what changed

Stop calling it hypocrisy or a double standard. Those concepts rely on some assumption of good faith. Republicans bring ZERO good faith to their politics. Call it BAD FAITH. Always.

What are the so-called Republicans in Congress doing, why do they not protect the Constitution, this president is walking all over it

Or maybe it’s about justifying 2 1/2 wasted years

Both parties are switching sides not just GOP - ole Bill was lauded at the 2016 DNC

Rep. Swalwell calls for impeachment of AG BarrCalifornia Congressman and Democratic Presidential Candidate Eric Swalwell, who serves on the Judiciary Committee, joins Andrea Mitchell to discuss Attorney General Barr’s decision to not show up to testify before the House Judiciary Committee today. Existing and safeguarding national security to the chagrin of political rivals is probably not grounds for impeachment. Also, it’s ironic considering the purpose of the entire investigation.
