Why He Should Stay (1998 pro-Clinton editorial from CT Post, which says Trump should resign)
Connecticut Post ^ | September 25, 1998 | Editorial

Posted on 09/28/2019 8:15:39 PM PDT by DoodleBob

PRESIDENT CLINTON should stay in office, at least for now. Independent counsel Kenneth Starr, in his 445-page report to Congress, presented a disturbing portrait of a president who engaged in a stunningly reckless affair with a White House intern, and then took extraordinary means to conceal it. It is now clear that Clinton not only lied about his sexual relationship under oath, but he repeated that lie in a memorably emphatic public statement and in private conversations with his closest advisers.

For seven months, Clinton went to great lengths to avoid a confrontation with the truth about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky. Clinton's behavior and his persistence in a lie caused incalculable damage to himself, his family, his staff and supporters -- as well as the American presidency.

The Starr report, and the supporting documents so far, leave little doubt about any of those points.

However, Starr's investigation into Clinton's affair with Lewinsky has not yet produced a compelling case for impeachment.

I sent them some tweet before.

And yeah it likely won’t matter.

But they should know how MANY people think they’re insane.

but the dems are SMART

now some Rs are saying maybe we should investigate

now ONE paper has said he should resign.

And another liberal paper will (there are few that aren’t)

and then another and another.

and THEN a “moderate” paper will say it.

and then the part of the public that’s not that bright will begin to feel normalized and desensitized to the idea of impeachment

“well if so many politicians and msm outlets are saying it should be, maybe it should be”

i hope i am COMPLETELY wrong

Trump is a super man but he isn’t Superman. At some point, Rs in Congress and the Senate need to come together and support their President, who is innocent until proven (not framed) guilty.

They should do it for the day Trump is out of office, because no one is going to vote for the spineless Rs that let or helped the ‘rats remove President Trump over this nonsense.
