I'm not trying to understate Hillary's crimes.
But I get nervous when people don't realize just how serious Nixon's crimes were.
Sixty-five people, if I remember correctly, were convicted of felonies, most of them lawyers working for the administration. You don't get that kind of rot with an innocent leader.
The funds used to finance the Watergate break-in were part of a stash of cash used to finance any number of criminal enterprises used to benefit Nixon. We will never know all the details but I doubt very much that Nixon was unaware of what was happening.
I've already posted regarding Nixon's dealings with China. Who knows how many people have died under that regime that might not have if not for Nixon's support. Nixon should have done to China what Reagan did to the Soviet Union.
“Who knows how many people have died under that regime that might not have if not for Nixon’s support. Nixon should have done to China what Reagan did to the Soviet Union. “
The more immediate existential threat in 1972 was the Soviet Union’s ICBM/SLBM force. The threat of the US and China working together was used to nudge them into SALT II. I do fault Bush 41 for not supporting/exploiting the ‘89 Democracy Movement.
