A former GOP congressman who voted to impeach then-President Bill Clinton in 1998 has hit out at what he labeled “the Donald Trump show.”
On Monday, former Rep. Bob Inglis (R-S.C.) told CNN International host Christiane Amanpour that the current president’s situation involving the investigations into his associates’ alleged ties to Russia is “much more serious” than the scandal that ended up engulfing Clinton’s administration.
Inglis made his comments after Amanpour played out an interview from 1998 in which he explained just why Clinton should be impeached.

In case anyone was wondering what happened to Inglis. We should be grateful that Sen. Fritz Hollings defeated this buffoon or we might have TWO Linda Grahams from SC.
Not pretty. This guy should be tarred and feathered. The Swamp has as many GOP Gators as Democrat Gators - all rich and fat from special interest groups.
I wonder if the French are willing to lease us that guillotine? They can have it back after a few months.
Honestly, Bob, if you’re going to rip on Trump despite the fact that he hasn’t actually committed perjury, you really shouldn’t have even bothered to vote for impeachment against Bill Clinton.
“I wonder if the French are willing to lease us that guillotine? They can have it back after a few months.”
No, don’t even bother. If we use the guillotine, we’ll be just like the Jacobins, which makes us even WORSE than RINOs, and if anything more like Obama or Clinton.
I do agree that we should drain the swamp, but using the guillotine is not the answer.
He sounds worse, though who knows what Graham would be saying if unburdened from his current career and desire to win reelection.
Potomac fever causes dementia and diarrhea of the mouth.
Beating an incumbent by over 40 points isn’t an ass whooping, it’s a murder! Gotta be one of the biggest margins against an incumbent ever, primary or general. Usually they do better than that even if they’re running in a redrawn seat that’s half new to them.
As I recall the biggest issue was Inglis becoming an envirowhackjob. He also voted for the bailout.
Used to have respect for Inglis ( knew him personally before he ran for Congress ). Lost all respect for him when he caved into the “climate change” crap after he sat down with his grade school daughter ( a la Jimmy Carter and Amy ) and she explained to him the “dangers of climate change”
Not only did he cave to Climate Change Crap after sitting down with daughter...
From article below, it appears he has now gone into Climate Change full time! ...So makes sense that he is bashing Trump big time on CNN!!! Big bucks in this for him, and he hates Trump’s environmental policies...

In 2011, Inglis went full-time into promoting free enterprise action on climate change and launched the Energy and Enterprise Initiative (“E&EI”) at George Mason University in July 2012. E&EI is a 501(c)(3), tax-exempt, educational outreach that lives to demonstrate the power of accountable free enterprise. E&EI believes that climate change can be solved by eliminating all subsidies, including the implicit subsidy of the lack of accountability for emissions. E&EI supports an online community of energy optimists and climate realists at republicEn.org. You can say you’re “En” on free enterprise solutions to climate change at republicEn.org.
For his work on climate change Inglis was given the 2015 John F. Kennedy Profile in Courage Award. Inglis was a Resident Fellow at Harvard University’s Institute of Politics in 2011, a Visiting Energy Fellow at Duke University’s Nicholas School of the Environment in 2012, and a Resident Fellow at the University of Chicago’s Institute of Politics in 2014.
Typical of all these "climate experts". He has no qualifications at all to comment on "climate change". Before he went into Congress, he was a bond lawyer in Greenville. I know for a fact that he knew nothing about air regulations and particulate matter discharge. I had to explain it to him while working on a bond issue with him for the company I worked for.
Rhetorical hyperbole.
