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?"

“I can do a lot more for you in my second term,” is not quite good enough, huh?

Complete submission to the royal family of Saudi Arabia.

Probable false birth certificate.

Probable use of phoney social security.

Probable false college transcripts.

The mess at Benghazi.

The collusion with Iran.

The waste of money on solar energy boondoggles.

None of this impeachable? Come on, who believes that?

He makes me laugh.

If ever there was a case for impeachment and conviction, it was during Obama’s two terms as Fraud in Chief.

Schiff knows that Trump is innocent. Schiff knows of obamas crimes, including the ones he committed to try to keep Trump from getting elected. Schiff is going after Trump to protect the criminal activity of the democrats. Schiff is full of lies, and all of Washington, as well as the msm, knows what is going on. This is one of the lowest points in the history of this country.

You must NOT forget - not the whiff of a scandal in the obozo administration. Wonder what he thinks now with the stories of his VP’s son that his VP covered up!! Or maybe he didn’t cover them up - they just never saw the light of day outside the Oval office.

Well the commie media refused to report on it, therefore in their minds, nothing happened..leaks never happened in the Obama Administration because he would have put a bullet in their heads if they did..and the commie media would have destroyed them for doing so

Bullstalin. Obama DID use the powers of his office to investigate one campaign and engage in sting operations against said campaign.

Wouldn’t it be more appropriate to impeach/indict Schiff for abuse of power?
