Here's my take on Richard Nixon, Biff. He was an extremely paranoid person...someone who believed that the increasingly liberal media and the Democrats were willing to stoop to dirty tricks to defeat him in an election.
Okay... And Trump isn't? Hey, did you hear yesterday when he was comparing the Whistle Blower to a spy?
I'm not going to "defend" Nixon for his actions but I can understand why he believed some of the things he did! This is a man who lost a Presidential race to JFK when Joe Kennedy and the Chicago Political "machine" delivered Illinois in a way that reeked of corruption! I've always believed that's what led Nixon to spying on his political enemies when he became President.
Okay... So wait a minute. Nixon was justified in believing what he did because of what Dick Daley did in IL, the thing is, even if Nixon had won IL, he STILL would have lost the electoral anachronism.
Are you admitting the EC is corrupt? Not that it matters, Tricky Dick STILL lost the Popular vote as well.
The cover up of a crime is what led to Nixon's removal from office. It wasn't an "alleged" cover-up whose existence was claimed by anonymous sources. The "burglars" were caught red handed. The conspiracy to cover up the burglary was exposed by subpoenaed White House tapes. They had Nixon cold and then he tried to get the Director of the IRS to intimidate his political opponents...the Director was a Republican but he had ethics and refused to go along with Nixon's requests...instead going to Congress to complain about what he was being asked to do. THAT was the end of Nixon!
Okay. Trump has been caught red handed trying to dig up dirt on Biden, and using American Tax dollars to get a foriegn government to do it. That's a LOT worse than anything Tricky Dick did.
