Corruption so large that it overwhelms the senses. The Clinton M O going all the way back to Arkansas.
You're a consistent & reliably good poster, so I must admit this is a rather disappointing emotional admission on your part.
If there is anything at all to be taken away from this sordid affair, a "teachable moment" if you will for current and future generations, is that this level of criminality and corruption is *par for the course* throughout the course of history. And please don't give me any "muh constitution" nonsense; that piece of paper and $2.50 will get you a cup of coffee @ Starbucks.
The key lesson here is that psychopaths aspire to power - seizing control of government and forcing people to cede to their authority. They don't have any other interests or hobbies; they care not a whit about family & friends.
The framers understood this concept intimately well. After all, they had just escaped the clutches of a country that's government traced back to a single, successful gambit for conquest by William I. The founders knew full well the arbitrary blood lust expressed by the ruling nobility for all commoners.
But a simple paper document could only provide a basic framework of checks & balances. Constant diligence was actually needed by the citizenry, otherwise those conspiring in the dark would have an easy time to devise and craft all kinds of mischief, as we've seen in spades.
The key at this point isn't to be surprised and/or outraged at what has transpired - after all, hundreds/thousands of civilizations have all experienced the same events - but to move on to the next question: what are we (Trump) going to do about punishing those who conspired to commit treason? And how do we put sufficient 'fear of god' into them to not try for at least another 50-75 years?

Don’t forget, GHWB would have been in it up to his armpits at Mena.
Correct. The Clinton strategy has always been to have so many scandals and investigations going that the public is totally unable to absorb it all. Not that the lapdog media do anything to clarify any of it.
