I still say John Dean commissioned the Watergate break-in to retrieve the list of DNC hookers that included his soon-to-be wife.
Maybe. He certainly engineered the cover up and then when he saw where things were going ratted everyone out and saved his own skin.
He was mortally afraid of Liddy.
That was G. Gordan Liddy’s allegation and he is to believed over the Nixon haters.
I can remember watching the hearings in my 8th grade history class and wondering :what ctrime did he commit?”
