Hillary Clinton could be charged under precedent set in Trump Impeachment trial

A lawyer for Donald Trump said the current impeachment drive is a partisan effort that could backfire on Democrats if they lose leverage, suggesting Hillary Clinton could also be impeached.

Responding to a question from Senator Marco Rubio during Friday’s impeachment hearing, Trump attorney Michael van der Veen argued that the Obama-era secretary could face similar impeachment proceedings sometime in the future. “Is it not true that under this new precedent, a future House – facing partisan pressure to ‘lock her up’ – could impeach a former secretary of state, and a future Senate be forced to put her on trial and potentially disqualify her from any future office?” Rubio asked.
