Throughout the impeachment inquiry into President Trump, many comparisons have been drawn to the impeachment inquiry into President Nixon. In this impeachment edition of The Point, Chris Cillizza talks with Tim Naftali, CNN presidential historian, about the similarities and differences, not just between the men, but also the moment. #CNN #News #Cillizza #Impeachment

Hey, Chris here — what is your biggest question about the impeachment proceedings so far?
My biggest question is… why are you constantly lying? And follow up.. why do you disregard the true criminals that have committed crimes using powers of the office? Example.. hillary and her emails… biden and his son… the bs fisa warrants.. etc…
@O SNOOPY SNOOP COLEMAN 🙄🙄😀😀😀😄😄😄😄🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@VileSkeptic Because Democrats prove daily they have none
@E Clouston Look out, childish insults from hypocrites who parrot conspiracy theories in willful ignorance https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOQXOV0PHL4
Why Democrats aren’t getting impeached themselves.
Trump didn’t steal the cheese sandwich 🥪 like Nixon
@David Grover If we are stating facts then it doesn’t matter! It was none of our business! Trying to influence our democratic election is OUR business and we should be angry!
David VanLuke22, Obama jailed a movie maker in order to cover up his failure in Benghazi. https://www.investors.com/politics/editorials/innocence-of-muslims-filmmaker-goes-to-jail/ And his most probing critic Dinesh D’Souza with a law that only ever seems to apply to him but not to Obama’s supporters https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/2016-obamas-america-filmmaker-indicted-673670
David VanLuke22, There is physical evidence that proved Clinton committed his crimes the evidence against trump is hearsay and most of it can’t be used in court.
David VanLuke22, It was Clinton broke included federal sexual-harassment standards
Likes to dislikes ratio again speaks volume 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@David Braun No I just don’t accept nonsense from brainwashed goofs.
@MoonCrow But people are talking about Pravda…I mean Fox…in order to dismiss it’s histrionic and insane ramblings as ultimately irrelevant and impotent. ты стоишь открытый товарищ
@o I c u 812 ты стоишь открытый товарищ
@Trueantitheist ты стоишь открытый товарищ
@Zaphod Dog ????
I hope everyone’s here to take a poop and I say that with a heart full of love
@Dan Meyers 💨
I already took a big Democrap this morning.
I’m actually on the toilet right now watching this crap
BP – Take a poop. Wow, that’s telling them!
I’m pooping right now.
Remember when CNN publicly congratulated itself for blackmailing a child over nothing?
@AnticommentWarrior I like you. You seem like good people.
@TheChickenRiceBowl I love chicken and rice my guy…
@TheChickenRiceBowl Lmaooo triggered
@Esteban Gomez Well you are easily fooled. Maybe they were actually on site, but they were putting on gas masks and army hats like they were 5 year olds playing outside. And then cracking jokes about the scud missles etc. But anyway I’ll leave you be. All MSM — CNN, FOX, ABC etc. are just one giant propaganda machine owned by the same people, who’s interest is to divide and conquer. Looks like they are doing a great job at it too.
@AnticommentWarrior Thank. 😌🥡
The like to dislike ratio, though
You say that like it’s difficult to piss off a handful of youtubers.
@Danny Gutierrez Unfortuantely, Trump will win in a land slide 😔
BUT… there will be many funny reaction videos from democrats 😊
That’s exactly what a troll says. GFY!
Even the UK rejects the mental illness known as liberalism.
Liberalism will die on a global scale. They refuse to accept it.
Majority dont want the gov to rule their lives.
We sent him to D.C. To expose your crimes to the world. To take back our country and free the world from your infection. Tick Tock

Fantastic Video just came on FOX explaining the Senate’s beatdown on the House. You should watch it. This video is for the younger kids only.
Thanks Vladimir
Epstein didn’t kill himself
CNN did
I’d be surprised if one higher up at CNN isn’t involved in some regard.
No, tRump did.
Sure thing. CNN can just walk into any jail or joint they want to. Lay off the meth, moron.
Epstein and trump were two wild and crazy guys until Epstein got caught and then trump didn’t know him.
@hugh morrison that’s some nice Russian propaganda you have there.
*This is how CNN debunks conspiracy theories*
“That theory has already been debunked”
And that’s it!
@Mean Martinni Bataan smollett…?
@Nu brænder Den STORE LUDERBOG!!
Christopher Hassan, Cesar Sayoc, Robert Bowers, Samuel woodward???
@Mean Martinni Bataan Racist child rapist Ralph Nortam? Pedophile fascist woman beater Keith Ellison? Extreme terrorist fascist Marxine Waters? ISIS supporter Ilhan Omar?
@Mean Martinni Bataan like how you idiots march on collusion.
“Evidince? BAH, evidince is for phoneys just believe A word we say”
What I like about youtube is comments 🙂
I like debunking cnn in the comments.
fucking hate them. People are way stupider than I’d ever thought. If I could work out how to them all off I would.
ya get the best ones here!
Yup. Didn’t come here to watch the damn videos! Just to comment! #fakenews😂
“I did NOT have sexual relations with that woman”…
..Yea ya did
The title of this clip should really be, “How we can make a match out of the two”
What about the comparison between trump and Clinton? Oops I forgot, only republicans are dirty….
Man needs to speak for himself, me and many others, as americans, ain’t hurt at all
United States of America’s mieda needs to f..king look at what has happened to dictators and realise Donald Trump is a constitutional rights supporter. Not a fu..ing dictator like Hitler nepolon Bonaparte emperor Hirohito stalen Moe zoidong. Also United States of America needs a slap in the face of the constution
That figures
So were just gonna ignore bill Clinton as the last impeachment huh
Ya he got the sucky sucky in the White House hehe
Its HILARIOUS watching all the Cockroaches running around now that all the lights are on. 🤣👌🏽 This next election is going to be EPIC!!
Its funny watching everyone starting to sweat. 😂
@Mo Fuggar well incase you still haven’t figured it out yet I was joking, how can an internationally recognized hand symbol be racist? Or a cartoon frog for that matter haha.
@VIII Elstaroth PaganGrinder VIII nah dude I figured it out. I meant people bitching about the “ok” sign in the YouTube comments. Jimmy Dore is getting bombarded with sjws throwing”ists” and “isms” lol.
@VIII Elstaroth PaganGrinder VIII 😂😂😂😂😂👌🏻👌👌🏽👌🏿

MAGA 2020
@Mo Fuggar i watch dore too. Ive noticed hes starting to get trolls. I didnt think that would happen because hes antiestabliment progressive.
