of course, the big difference is the MSM covered Watergate 24/7 for years.
shun the FakeNewsMSM.

The Watergate excesses (using the term inclusively to include things like "dirty tricks") were unnecessary. Nixon was a shoo-in to be re-elected. If Ed Muskie had been the Democrat nominee, he would have carried a few more states than McGovern did, but it would still have been like Eisenhower's victories over Stevenson. But Nixon and CREEP wanted a landslide and that tripped them up.
The Obama/Hillary/Comey/Brennan conspiracy in 2016 was different--there was a real contest and the conspiracy was meant to ensure the right person won.

Barack Obama was never eligible to be President and BOTH parties knew it.
Not one of our elected or appointed stood up for the Constitution.
It is so much worse than most people think.

“The crimes at the tail end of the Kenyanesian Usurpation pale in comparison to the crimes committed before that and the violation of our Constitution by BOTH parties.”
I think we would both agree that it was an 8 year long treason regime. It should surprise no one that America is in this state after true-believing marxists, maoists and muslims were in charge of the executive branch for that long. We had an illegitimate enemy combatant named, Barack Hussein Osama(Obama is swahili for osama), as commander in chief of our armed forces. If that’s not a death knell for America, I don’t know what is...

Both parties colluded to bring us the Kenyanesian Usurpation.
Obama could not have done what he did without the cooperation of the GOP.

Weak Tweet this time, Mr. President. There is a multitude of offenses committed by this criminal cabal, each far surpassing Watergate.

I’ve thought about the reverse. Whatever it is that they end up being known to have gotten away with, Trump should do exactly the same in 2020.

And the reason nothing will come of this is because the informant and the Attorney General have the same last name.

To: South Dakota
I have run across that theory but don't know whether it has validity. John Dean over the years has shown that he is pretty unprincipled but was he in a position to instigate the break-ins (the June 17th break-in was the second one) on his own? And if it was just a rogue operation by JWD, why did Nixon think it vital to cover up what had happened?
In any event, CREEP did other things besides the Watergate bugging that were dubious ethically, whether illegal or not, and not necessary.
Of course if we knew all the shenanigans perpetrated by earlier Democratic campaigns they would probably put Watergate in the shade.
