'Voted to betray': Clinton slams Senate Republicans after Trump acquittal
[Wash Examiner] Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ripped Senate Republicans after they voted to acquit President Trump on two impeachment charges of obstruction of Congress and abuse of power.

"As the president's impeachment trial began, Republican senators pledged an oath to defend the Constitution," Clinton tweeted. "Today, 52 of them voted to betray that oath‐and all of us. We're entering dangerous territory for our democracy. It'll take all of us working together to restore it."

Clinton, 72, lost to Trump, 73, in the 2016 presidential election and has spent much of the time since repeatedly claiming she actually won because of the popular vote. Last week, she said attacks from Sen. Bernie Sanders's supporters were part of the reason she was unsuccessful in 2016.

Clinton faces a $50 million defamation lawsuit that Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii is bringing against the former first lady after she called Gabbard a "Russian agent" in 2019.

As the president's impeachment trial began, Republican senators pledged an oath to defend the Constitution.

Today, 52 of them voted to betray that oath‐and all of us.

We're entering dangerous territory for our democracy. It'll take all of us working together to restore it.

She blamed everybody else under the sun for her loss - Senate Republicans get a pass on that count!

No wonder you're a loser, Shrillery; you don't even know we have a representative republic, not a democracy.

Idiot.
