With a 21-year divide, partisanship is the biggest difference between Trump and Clinton impeachment trials
President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial in the Senate resembles that of Bill Clinton's in 1999, but there are differences.
For another, partisanship has increased over the past 21 years, which means senators are less likely to cross party lines when voting. How the trials – and the times – compare:In the Clinton trial, Supreme Court Chief Justice William Rehnquist started the first day of House manager presentations by saying, "Well, let's begin. Fight fair."
Roberts cited the impeachment trial of Judge Robert Swayne in 1905, when an objection was made to a manager using the word "pettifogging."
