Joe Biden and others used “Lynching” during Clinton impeachment hearings

lynch verb (used with object) to put to death, especially by hanging, by mob action and without legal authority.

“It seems to me that the process is being deemed, and I have great faith in Henry Hyde, but old Henry better get on the job because unless he figures out how to corral this, no matter what happens, even if the president should be impeach, history is going to question whether or not this was just a a partisan lynching or whether or not it was something that in fact met the standard, the very high bar that was set by the Founders as to what constituted an impeachable offense,” says then Senator Joe Biden in an 1998 interview with Wolf Blitzer on CNN in regards to the impeachment process of Bill Clinton.

Just a few of the terms used by Democrats during Clinton impeachment include partisan lynching, political lynch mob, lynching, find a robe find a tree, political lynching, lynching in the people’s house.

President Trump used the same term about the House Democrats’ impeachment hunt of him, liking it to a “lynching” on Oct. 22, 2019 in a tweet and the Democrats “lynched” him for it . . .

“So some day, if a Democrat becomes President and the Republicans win the House, even by a tiny margin, they can impeach the President, without due process or fairness or any legal rights. All Republicans must remember what they are witnessing here — a lynching. But we will WIN!”
