Former Nixon counsel John Dean: Trump 'should have been impeached the day he walked in'
John Dean, the former White House counsel to Richard Nixon, ripped into President Trump, saying he should have been impeached on day one of stepping into office.
"I think this president probably should have been impeached the day he walked in," Dean said Saturday on CNN. "He's incompetent. He has a terrible attitude. He doesn't understand government. He is in there trying to build his own brand, and he's taking advantage of the office from day one. It's just kind of caught up with him with this incident."
Dean claimed that Trump should also be facing "about 10 instances of obstruction of justice from the Mueller report," which the House Democrats' impeachment hearings have not discussed.
His comments come after House Democrats hold the first week of public impeachment hearings. The proceedings center on whether Trump withheld military aid from Ukraine in exchange for an investigation into Joe Biden and his son, Hunter Biden.

Dean just named all the qualities that we elected Trump FOR.
Yes, he has a terrible attitude towards government corruption and self-servers who think they know better than the American people. And the American people don't believe it takes a professional career politician to 'understand' anything.
Yes, he's out there trying to build his own brand, which is OUR brand - a real, raw, irritating and unignorable voice of The People who elected him as President - a position that is not merely an agency of Congress. And of a people angry at the misdirection and double-speak of a government that has their own agenda. A government that has taken to beating down any opposition 'by any means necessary' as testimony has proved.
And yes, by golly, he is taking advantage of his position as President, to fulfill his campaign promises by using powers exclusive to the Presidency, to expose what has long needed to be exposed, to right the ship of the American republic, promoting transparency in all branches of government at all levels as well as enforcing separation of powers. Building pride in American accomplishments, and a patriotism born of something very rare in this world: The liberty of self determination to preserve American sovereignty from all those who try to compromise us, internal and external, so help us God.
Here is an excerpt from a letter by attorney John Williams to John Dean who threatened to sue Phil Stanford for material presented in the excellent 2013 book White House Callgirl

“Finally, there exists a discernible trail of financial transactions that is highly suggestive of a contemporaneous (1972 and 1973) relationship between and Louis Russell, the associate of Watergate burglar James McCord and patron of the Columbia Plaza call girl ring who has been characterized as “the sixth man” present for the break-in at the DNC on the night of June 16, 1972. Mr. Russell was penurious, and his bank records reveal account balances that never exceeded more than a few hundred dollars. On November 15, 1972 he deposited $4,570.00 in his account shortly after you withdrew $4,850 from a White House safe. At the time, you told Senate investigators you had used the funds for your honeymoon with Mrs. Dea but when deposed in Dean v. St Martins, you will recall that you could not account for many of these funds.
Subsequently, in March 1973, Mr. Russell deposited another $20,895.00 in close proximity to the time when you were alleged to have taken another $22,000 from the White House funds. Former White House chief of staff H.R. Haldeman reported in his book The Ends of Power (1978) that he attempted to trace this money and ultimately concluded that you had taken it. While you have in the past sough to dismiss any assertion of a connection between you and Mr. Russell, the evidence arrayed herein can only add to the lingering suspicions harbored by generations of researchers about your, and Mrs. Dean’s true roles in the Watergate affair.”
Dean was definitely being blackmailed by Howard Hunt and Lou Russell, a former HUAC investigator who was fired for trying to extort a “loan” from actor Edward G. Robinson. Curiously, Hunt’s wife Dorothy was killed in a Chicago plane crash in December 1972 after many payments orchestrated by Dean, and Lou Russell would die a few weeks after Dean’s June 1973 testimony.
Bump
To say John Dean is a rat is an insult to rats. The fact that the right is thoroughly seeded with Judases like him is why the conspiracy movie the Parallax View, where Warren Beatty’s character was hounded to his death by right-wing conspirators, and framed, is such a joke. Right-wingers can’t even read the Democrats’ mail without being discovered, let alone cover up a bunch of political murders.
another obsessed TDS victim heard from- gee- hadn’t heard from one in 20 minutes or so- but phew- this dude broke that streak- was thi9nki9ng perhaps TDS afflicted folks were calming down a bit- but nope-
Hey Dean- seek mental health help soon- seriously- your TDS is making you look like an imbecile
Dean goes over the top in his hatred. He could have just said he didn't like Trump and left it at that. But he gave the world his full measure and that was as a loser.
Trump brings out the worst in his enemies and the best in his friends and supporters. He is an amazing man.
Says the man responsible for the Watergate break-ins and Nixon’s resignation.
The freakin’ punk Dean is lucky The G-Man didn’t whack him out 40 years ago.
John Dean, a-hole. Got it.
Once a POS always a POS.
STF up Dean the only thing I remember about you is your wife Maureen.
How was she?
Didn’t mean it THAT way. I remember her as drop dead gorgeous from the TV hearings back in the 70’s.
High client call girls reputedly are.
“...everyone who voted for him should be rounded up and dumped into a lime-lined ditch, right, Dean?
That’s a tough one, who would pay for the bulk of all their stuff?
If given a choice, I would never vote for a politician again, only astute businessmen used to make tough management decisions.
