Former President Bill Clinton offered President Donald Trump some ironically sound advice regarding the ongoing impeachment saga:

Let the lawyers worry and focus on your job.

"My message would be, look, you got hired to do a job," Clinton said during a phone interview with CNN on Thursday. "You don't get the days back you blow off. Every day is an opportunity to make something good happen.”

He continued, "And I would say, 'I've got lawyers and staff people handling this impeachment inquiry, and they should just have at it. Meanwhile, I'm going to work for the American people. That's what I would do."

His words of advice follow the first round of impeachment inquiry hearings in the House on Wednesday.

In a choice position to be able to offer such advice, Clinton was impeached in 1988, becoming the second American president to be impeached.
