67. Considering Bill Clinton got impeached for lying...

...Trump could get impeached for reciting Nixon's speech.

On November 16, 1973, Nixon spoke at the Associated Press Managing Editors Conference at Walt Disney World and talked about the allegations he was profiting from public service. This is what he said:

"I have earned every cent. And in all my years of public life, I have never obstructed justice. People have got to know whether or not their president is a crook. Well, I'm not a crook. I've earned everything I've got."

Trump is a crook, and all he's done is obstructed justice.
