Let us all pray that McConnell is not taking advice from this guy:
By contrast, Tom Daschle, the Democratic minority leader of the Senate when Mr. Clinton was impeached, and Trent Lott, the Republican leader, issued a joint statement after the House approved impeachment articles, promising a fair and impartial trial. They worked closely together throughout, Mr. Lott said in an interview on Friday.
“One thing I knew from the get-go was we were not going to remove Bill Clinton,” he said, “so the challenge is to have a process that everybody felt was fair.”
Mr. Lott said he studiously avoided commenting on the articles of impeachment, and pushed back on pressure from his rank-and-file to have Ms. Lewinsky and other witnesses testify in the well of the Senate; he believed it would “demean” the proceedings. Instead, they gave videotaped depositions.
“I wanted to set it up with the proper decorum and seriousness and, as much as possible bipartisanship,” Mr. Lott said, “so that when we did get to the end, the Republicans who hated Bill Clinton would say, ‘Well, we didn’t remove him, but we did our job.’ ”
The entire country knew the degenerate was not going to be removed because the numbers favored Clinton from the start.
The major difference in the Left’s attack’s on Trump is that Schiff does not have a REPUBLICAN Trent Lott rigging the trial.
The media deserves the blame for creating the Clintons, but if you are looking for one individual to blame for Clinton getting off easy go no further then-Senator Trent Lott.
Lott also sold out House Republicans during last year’s trial of President Clinton. “You’re not going to dump this garbage on us,” Lott told GOP impeachment managers, House Judiciary investigative counsel David Schippers reports. Lott gave Democrats everything they wanted: a brief inquiry with no live witnesses and boxes of evidence kept secret. How bipartisan.
Not one Democrat voted Bill Clinton guilty on either charge, but how many people remember that Republican Trent Lott deserved much of the blame for everything the Clintons did in the years after the impeachment trial? Should Bubba and Hillary skate on all of their Clinton Foundation crimes you can lay that on Trent Lott’s double-cross, too.
It was Trent Lott that made Hillary Clinton possible. Had the public known the full truth about Bill & Hillary in 2000 it is highly unlikely Hillary would have become a U.S. Senator, and eventually secretary of state.

Even today, keeping Hillary Clinton out of jail is an ongoing conspiracy that is driving Trump’s impeachment. Basically, Pelosi promised to stop the impeachment trial if Trump’s DoJ stops investigating Hillary Clinton.
Finally, I doubt if the public will ever learn the depth of Hillary’s criminality or depravity.

Trent Lott did not want the House dumping garbage on the Senate, but he had no qualms about the Clintons dumping their garbage on the American people.
Clinton was not going to be removed because a two-thirds majority was needed to convict. The Senate was split 50-50; so Trent Lott used his authority to make sure the public never heard Republicans ask witnesses penetrating questions that would expose Hillary’s collusion in Bill’s sexual activities, not to mention covering up his crimes.
