Democrats spent nearly the entire day on Tuesday freaking out because Trump used the word “lynching” to describe impeachment.
Some Democrats accused Trump of racism.
Others accused him of disrespecting the Constitution.
Joe Biden was one of them.
See his tweet below:
Impeachment is not "lynching," it is part of our Constitution. Our country has a dark, shameful history with lynching, and to even think about making this comparison is abhorrent. It's despicable. https://t.co/QcC25vhNeb

Biden has apparently forgotten about the internet. Someone dug up a clip from 1998 on CNN where Joe Biden was talking about the impeachment of Bill Clinton and you’ll never guess what word he used to describe it. Watch:
Joe Biden has to explain what changed.
FLASHBACKJoe Biden in 1998:
"Even if the President should be impeached, history is going to question whether or not this was just a partisan lynching…"

While we’re on the subject, lots of Democrats used the same word. See below:
Democrat Rep. Jim McDermott compared Clinton’s Impeachment n 1998 to #Lynching:
“We're taking a step down the road to becoming a political Lynch Mob… We are going to find a rope find a tree and ask a bunch of questions later..”

Do Democrats think no one remembers anything?
It sure looks that way.
