“What’s wrong wit Brit Hume?”
I think the point he was making was that while everyone attributes Clinton’s re-election victory to blowback against Republicans over the impeachment, it really had more to do with a good economy.
In other words, recent improvement in Trump’s re-election prospects may have more to do with good jobs reports than with the Democrats’ embarrassing impeachment antics.
Personally, I think it’s both. The Democrats are indeed helping Trump, but a significant economic downturn this summer would be devastating, with or without impeachment.
It was neither. Clinton was reelected in Nov 1996, 2 years before he was impeached in Dec 1998.
Actually, Article 2 is about Obstruction of Congress. To me, that is actually one of the responsibilities of the Executive Branch when Congress is out of control.
