Hillary Clinton just won’t go away.
The failed 2016 presidential candidate is now supportive of the effort to oust her former opponent from office.
Clinton took to Twitter on Wednesday to say, “I support impeachment.”
The president of the United States has betrayed our country.
That’s not a political statement—it’s a harsh reality, and we must act.
He is a clear and present danger to the things that keep us strong and free.
I support impeachment.

“The president of the United States has betrayed our country,” she writes, insisting, “That’s not a political statement–it’s a harsh reality, and we must act.”
She adds, “He is a clear and president danger to the things that keep us strong and free.”
She didn’t identify those “things.”
Via People magazine:
Clinton, a sharp critic of Trump since narrowly losing to him in the 2016 presidential election, made the impassioned call during an exclusive interview with PEOPLE set to be published in next week’s issue.
“We are in a crisis,” Clinton said.
She told PEOPLE she was now supporting Trump’s impeachment. “I did not come to that decision easily or quickly,” she said, “but this is an emergency as I see it. … This latest behavior around Ukraine, trying to enlist the president of Ukraine in a plot to undermine former Vice President Biden or lose the military aid he needs to defend against Trump’s friend Vladimir Putin — if that’s not an impeachable offense, I don’t know what is.”
The election wasn’t actually close. Trump defeated Clinton, 304 electoral votes to 227.
