Cornyn threatens impeachments of past Democratic presidents

[Alben Barkley]

What kind of empty threat is this?

Who they gonna impeach?

Obama for... “Obamagate?” The tan suit???

Clinton they already impeached. And no, nobody has even so much as accused Clinton of any illegal activities involving Epstein, unlike Trump and his impeachment defense attorney Alan Dershowitz. Let alone that there is any proof. Let alone of anything from when he was still president.

Besides, both are ineligible to run again anyway.

The only living Democrat who isn’t is Carter, and I doubt he’s going to run at 100. Plus impeaching him would be even more laughable. Probably our cleanest president ever.

So then you have to go back to dead presidents. LBJ may have done some shady things, but as far as I know, no proof of actual crimes while he was president. JFK, even less to go on. And so on and so forth. What they gonna do, impeach Andrew Jackson? I doubt most Democrats today would even care if they did.

This tweet (Cornyn’s) is one of the most tone-deaf and stupid things I’ve ever seen a politician say. Hard to believe he couldn’t realize how bad the optics of that are. Opposing a policy overwhelmingly supported by the public AND the military (troops and brass alike) just because it was enacted by a president of the other party is the opposite of “unity.” Clearly what he really means is that Biden has to support only policies supported by a minority of bigoted Republicans for there to be “unity.”

Between this and the previous thing about impeaching dead Democrats, maybe Cruz isn’t the dumbest senator from Texas after all.
