Why is the impeachment of Donald Trump different from that of Bill Clinton? It’s simple, really. Here, let CNN’s Jake Tapper explain:
Big differences between Clinton impeachment and this one. Clinton at this point was publicly contrite and partisans supporting him mostly argued that what he did was wrong, just not impeachable. This president is on the attack and his partisans deny facts and any wrongdoing.

The biggest difference was proof (and the lack of three years of republicans calling for his impeachment for undefined reasons), Jake.

He was absolutely NOT contrite. Not at all. Do you not remember "it depends on what the meaning of is is" dripping with disdain?

He did it over and over again so how contrite is that?

No he wasn't

Are you kidding?
That day Clinton had a Rose Garden show where he never admitted where he was impeached, what misdemeanor he committed, and blamed politics for everything! https://t.co/2EOSE7uShG

Clinton pretty much would have done much what Trump has done, except today, we live in a social media world.
This is twisting of history by Tapper. https://t.co/1HLHyOCheD
