Schiff: I'd impeach Obama if he did the same as Trump
NBC News ^ | Dec 15, 2019 | Allan Smith

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said Sunday that if former President Barack Obama had committed the same alleged offense that led the House Judiciary Committee to approve articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump, Schiff would support impeaching him as well.

Schiff made the comments in an interview with ABC's "This Week," in which he lamented the staunch support for Trump among congressional Republicans in the face of the impeachment investigation.

"What has really changed between now and Watergate isn't the nature of the president's conduct, if anything, this president's conduct is far worse than anything Nixon did, far more sweeping in its obstruction of accountability, far more damaging to our national security than the cover-up that was Watergate," Schiff said. "The question is, why are Republicans placing this president above their oath of office?"

Mr. Secret Testimony No Defense Witnesses Allowed has informed us how impartial he really is. I don’t think he’s fooling anyone.

Well, well, well. Pretty easy to prove Obama and his sidekick Biden did precisely what President Trump has been accused by Schiff of doing. I doubt his sincerity.

Shifty Schiff is lying, as always.

Five Times Obama Abused His Power and Democrats Didn’t Care

9 Times The Obama Administration Fought Subpoenas or Blocked Officials from Testifying Before Congress

Obama, not knowing that mic was live, asking the President of Russia, Medvedev, to speak to Vladimir Putin, and help him win his last election.

Mr. Schiff, you have the right to remain silent and not lose the last nanoparticles of dignity held in your ass crack of a mouth.

He did way worse than Trump, and we have facts proving crimes. Something the Democrats do not have about Trump.

When a person is 100% in the back pocket of Satan, they can lie like it’s normal conversation. Straight face. No change of emotion. Because people like that have no morals or shame. You can pretty much assume that any sounds coming out of their cake slot are lies coming straight out of the Devil’s a**hole. Honestly, I see most if not all Democrats being in this state of evil. Sodom and Gomorrah burned for less.

This is simply Shiftt trying to keep the impeachment theater going. Trying to goad the republicans into extending the show.

We heard that during Nixon. Recycling old lies. Then they defended Clinton tooth and nail.

We all know that Obama did seek to use foreign intelligence and foreign diplomatic contacts to “find dirt” on Trump. It has all been reported. Hillary was to be the beneficiary of the foreign collusion.

Look into the details of the Australian politician's wine drinking revelation that Russia had dirt on Hillary as told by a drunk Trump hanger-on who was fed the information from a mysterious person with Russian/Italian/Crete ties.

I hope that Schiff will testify to this in the Senate and how he feels that Obama must now be investigated.

He has definitely convinced himself that President Trump is much worse than anyone else ever!! Guess that’s how he sleeps at night - not recognizing his own lies!

Why would any TV show have him on and give him a chance to tell more lies?
