I have been saying for years that Watergate was a Media coup. They got away with that one, and every politician has been afraid of the Liberal/Progressive Media since.
Nice to see there was the same sort of stacking of the deck in Nixon's case, as we see today. All covered up by the Deep State and the Media working together.
I always thought Nixon was railroaded and so did many others but through the years most have come to believe that he was guilty.
Jeff Sessions was Trump’s Elliot Richardson, and Archibald Cox was his Robert Mueller. Trump bungled badly by choosing Sessions as AG. I think it put him in a very precarious position. Trump’s advantage was that he was completely innocent, and yes - he DID fight.
Who Trump should have learned from is Obama. Obama made sure he had true fellow-travelers as his AGs. He even made sure they were black and “down for the struggle.” Of course, they were political and biased as hell, but with Holder-Lynch, Obama was absolutely safe from any attacks from within the DOJ/FBI establishment.
The similarities between this coup and Watergate are striking (as the similarities with Dallas, thank God, are not - yet).
I wrote quite a bit about this here in October, a lot of FReepers are too young to remember the details or have thoroughly absorbed the narrative.
The one base that Trump hasn’t covered, a mistake Nixon also made, is “never deny what can be proven - remember, you don’t know who the traitors are”.
Trump has acted since August like there would be something wrong with a quid-pro-quo transaction between himself and the President of Ukraine, so he has repeatedly and emphatically denied it.
But, all diplomacy is based on quid-pro-quo, and also, of course, as Chief Law Enforcement Officer of the United States, Trump was completely within his rights to offer Ukraine something, or to threaten them if need be, to get cooperation with his envoy, Rudy Giuliani in the search for proof of bribery, money laundering, and other crimes perpetrated by US citizens with Ukrainian persons.
Why did Schumer go right to “We must hear Bolton”?
It’s because if Trump, stupidly in my opinion, keeps up “The call was perfect, there was no quid-pro-quo”, and the two sides on the Senate floor keep arguing “yes there was” vs. “No there wasn’t”, Bolton’s testimony at the last minute, on nationwide TV, that Trump told him “I’m going to get Biden by talking to Ukraine” (true or false) could be just the thing to collapse the will of 20 already-weak Republicans.
That baleful presence of Hillary Clinton in the last two impeachments

...Which is a brilliant connection no one’s noticed before. Hillary Clinton was a factor in both impeachments of U.S. presidents, something that never happened much in U.S. politics before she showed up.
Clinton was ambitious as heck in her desire to cling to power, participating in covering up Clinton’s long string of thumbings of his nose at the law even in personal matters and certainly seemed to be a proponent of open marriage, given her hubby Bill’s indiscretions which have since extended to Jeffrey Epstein at this late date. That was the root of his Monica Lewinsky-linked impeachment.
Her ambition only extended after that, with her amazing lunges toward power and the presidency after that. It was her fury at losing the election to President Trump that led to the phony Russia collusion narrative, debunked by the Mueller report, and then its sequel, the phony Ukraine quid-pro-quo, which of course was rooted in the climate of corruption that festered at the State Department, the U.S. diplomatic corps, and the rest of the Obama administration foreign policy establishment, ending with Hunter Biden turning foreign aid into his own personal money trough. That’s the basis of the impeachment of President Trump now, who rightly wanted to get to the bottom of it.
What a baleful presence this woman has been in American politics.
