“Both impeachments were witch hunts! Political persecution!”
What You Say
Impeachment is a constitutional process defined in Article I. Trump was impeached twice by the House — once for pressuring Ukraine to investigate a political rival, once for inciting January 6. The first had bipartisan House votes; the second had bipartisan Senate votes to convict. Calling constitutional accountability a 'witch hunt' is what guilty people say when the evidence is public.
The Stab
Witch hunts don't have witnesses, transcripts, and votes on the record.
