Comments by "Hugh Jorgan" (@HughJorgan1) on "ABC News Live Update: Former President Trump’s 2nd impeachment trial begins today" video.
History will remember Trump's impeachments as the Democrats abusing Congressional powers and taking craps on due process and the Constitution.

@dalejones9919 ..Try to look at the big picture: 1. Trump's first impeachment was a clear abuse of Congressional powers with a 100% partisan vote in the House. It was also the first impeachment in history without an actual crime. In fact, Pelosi and Schiff couldn't even get all their own members of House to vote to go along with their scam as 2 voted against impeachment. 2. Trump's second impeachment was the first in history without investigations and hearings at the House level. Trump's legacy is completely untarnished by the Dems political games and abuse of Congressional powers. And all Dems and Trump haters should remember just how far the Dems have lowered the bar for impeachment.

@richietattersall2122 ..I didn't say impeachment had to involve a crime. I just pointed out that Trump's first impeachment was the first with non-criminal charges ("Abuse of Power" and "Obstruction of Congress"). I remind you that Clinton's impeachment crimes were "Obstruction of Justice" (he tampered with witnesses and information to hinder the investigation) and "Perjury" (which is a FELONY). And what Clinton lied about (a blow job) to a Grand Jury is completely irrelevant to the crime of Perjury. In fact, I think it makes it worse he was stupid enough to lie about a simple affair, breaking every oath he'd made. All of which is why his impeachment was bipartisan in the House. Lastly, it's highly illogical to say impeachment is strictly a political process . It follows all the principles of a judicial process from start to end. I encourage Democrats and Trump haters to put aside their bias and try to look at the big picture. Constitutional lawyers warned Pelosi and Schumer to be VERY careful with the impeachment power granted the House. They ignored the warning and conducted a 100% partisan impeachment...and then conducted another without investigations or hearings in the House. If a future Republican majority does the same to a Democrat President, Democrats can't complain.
