| Mr Khan said: I wouldn't put it past the Republicans. They tried it with Clinton, and that was only a midterm election year, having him under impeachment would be a good way to throw the election in their favor, whether or not he or Holder acted wrongly. |
Whether or not he acted wrongly? Congress demanded files from the attorney general.
He refused.
That's wrong, and it's been grounds for contempt of congress on both sides of the aisle and has been used by both sides... well the last two presidents.
Not that it amounts to anything... since you know. the discetion to prosecute Eric Holder would fall to the Attorney General. Seems like somebody missed a loophole on that one...
Also... impeachment hearings HELPED clinton and boosted his approval rating, not sure why you'd think this would be any different.
