Ironic that John Dean said in 2018 that Nixon “might have survived (Watergate) if there had been a Fox News”; Dean admits that the whole thing was media-driven, right there.

Nixon opening up trade with Red China was indeed a bad thing altogether, not just in short run and long run. Have a look at certain goals of the communists for the USA:
  1. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.
  1. Provide American aid to all nations regardless of communist domination.

  2. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the UN. …
This lines up with the views of Karl Marx on free trade:
…(I)n general, the protective system of our day is conservative, while the free trade system is destructive. It breaks up old nationalities and pushes the antagonism of the proletariat and the bourgeoisie to the extreme point. In a word, the free trade system hastens the social revolution. It is in this revolutionary sense alone, gentlemen, that I vote in favor of free trade.
Handing victories to communists is no way to defeat them, but to make them stronger.

John Dean was the mastermind behind Watergate, and were it not for him there wouldn't have been a Nixon resignation.

Nixon was so far ahead in the polling that they didn't need to "bug" the Democratic National Committee Headquarters for intelligence. Nixon ended up carrying 49 of 50 states.

The purpose of Watergate was to get paperwork that Dean's then girlfriend Maureen was running a prostitution ring from within the DNC.

It was all outlined in the book Silent Coup that Liddy has said was the most factual account of what happened surrounding Watergate.

He was sold the saddle soap that a tripartite solution was more advantageous than permitting Soviet Russia and Mao's burgeoning China to rub up against each other.

The truth was, the globalists (money) saw both the massive cheap labor potential of Chine, and also feared that the two Communist-but-stupid-in-a-different-way EuroAsian continentals would nuke each other once China started reclaiming Mongolia and Southeastern Asia.
