Obama was mostly criticized for stuff ha'd actually done. No shortage there. :shrug:

You think Trump hasn't done anything worthy of criticism?

Did anyone call for Obama to be impeached over fast and furious or when he used the IRS to go after political opponents?

No, but they spent 3 years investigating Benghazi without a single charge being made and they held an unsuccessful enquiry into Hillary's e-mails. Then they ran an election campaign on ''lock her up''. Hardly surprising that the Dem's are copying the tactics which won the election for Trump.
It isn't just one side that is responsible for the current toxic state of American politics.

In answer to a direct question rather than as mere deflection.

It's funny how the dems keep doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result. Wonder if there is a word for that.

You're all acting as if this tactic is unprecedented. It's not.
What is unprecedented is all the whining and accusations of persecution, witchhunts and ''it's a coup''.
It's just more of the same, only it's your guy being scrutinised this time.
