A closer look at senators who voted to convict Clinton, not Trump
| Quote: | | Four current Republican senators were in the chamber in 1999 to vote to convict Bill Clinton, only to vote to acquit Donald Trump 22 years later. |
| Quote: | George Conway added over the weekend, "As someone who knows something about what happened 22 years ago, I can state unequivocally that there's no equivalence and no comparison between Clinton's lying about consensual sex in a civil case and Trump's attempt to overturn constitutional democracy."
Postscript: For the record, Idaho's Mike Crapo was the only congressional Republican who was in the House in 1998, and voted to impeach Clinton, and then joined the Senate in 1999, at which point he was able to vote to also convict Clinton. He's the only GOP member still in Congress to fall into both categories.
