Originally published at: BAD EDUCATION: Ilhan Omar Asks If ‘We Ever Had an Impeached President Deliver the State of the Union’ | Sean Hannity
Controversial Congresswoman Ilhan Omar raised eyebrows on social media over the weekend; asking if the United States has ever had an impeached President deliver the State of the Union.
Omar apparently forgot about President Bill Clinton, who delivered his 1999 address just hours after his lawyers opened up their initial defense during his trial in the United States Senate.
“Have we ever had an impeached President, deliver the State of the Union address while he is on trial in the Senate?” pondered Omar. “Given the audience in the room will be both his prosecutors and jurors on said trial.”
