Think back to the Watergate scandal (if you’re old enough). Nixon was in real trouble only when fellow Republicans started turning on him.

The same applies with these current Obama and Hillary scandals. It means nothing when an opposition party member criticizes those two. It will only mean something when Democrats start to criticize them.

And that ain’t gonna happen, ever.

“Think back to the Watergate scandal (if you’re old enough). Nixon was in real trouble only when fellow Republicans started turning on him.”

Nixon was sabotaged by the Democrats, the media and the Washington establishment from the moment Nixon assumed the presidency.

There were originally plans to impeach Nixon over his bombing of North Vietnam sanctuary bases in Cambodia.

When Nixon won the 1972 election in a landslide, the impeachment process began in full.

Nixon had absolutely nothing to do with the Watergate break in. There is still no evidence as to who ordered it and no logical reason for it.
Nixon was impeached because he won the election in a landslide, was trying to get control of the federal bureaucracy.

Many Republicans never supported him. They just let him be impeached.
