it was all so republicans could distance themselves from Nixon. no moral or ethical crisis they suddenly had. It was for the future of the party and nothing else. And what happened to the next republican? His name was Reagan and he won a 49 state landslide

GOSHDARNit I hate realizing stuff like this. Now we know how this all ends. He just resigns and plays golf happilly the rest of his life after he's ultimately pardoned by whoever

A pardon doesn't protect him from state investigations.

Republicans went to the White House to tell Nixon it was over and that he was going to be impeached.

With Trump the Republicans were standing by him repeating his lies or keeping quiet. Oh and they also have news networks that had been or are still repeating his lies.

If that was a legit worry from his lawyers then he'll be advised that when he resigns he'll immediately fly to russia (they don't extradite) before he is put on a no fly list. the bad guys always win, dude. this is depressing

this further validates my point. They didn't grow any, they just saw that public sentiment had changed and gave Nix the heads up and promised he would be pardoned after resigning. And thats exactly what happened.

While the wealthy may very rarely see consequences proportionate to their crimes, your hysterics makes me believe you're not posting in good faith.

Ive seen this movie before

all i can think about is nixons resignation being basically fake so republicans could distance themselves from him. Now the same thing is happening with trump.

Do you know who was the next republican president after Nixon? It was reagan in 4 years. And he won by a landslide because of the games they played in iran with the hostages.

History just repeats itself. In 2 years republicans win the congress back. In 4 or 8 another Reagan or trump like puppet will be president.

And Ford's pardon of him, which sank their chances in 1976?

Do you have any comprehension of the damage they did under reagan? People call reagan the devi but he was just another puppet for gingrich and mconnel. l. Just like now, i really doubt he had any comprehension of it either since he was just a charismatic guy with Alzheimers.

wake the **** up. The problem is the republican party, not the president.

Yes! Do you have any knowledge of the way the party fought off Reagan's primary challenge in 1976, even given Ford's obvious ties to Nixon?

Your theory that the party made a clean break with Nixon to clear the runway for Reagan is ahistorical.

And yet, reafgan gave their party everything they wanted. Full control of congress, taking away corporate liability and regulations, court seats just like now.
