Every time I hear any references to Watergate unironically, I just roll my eyes and say “whatever, boomer”, which is the few times the phrase it actually justified.
Watergate, whatever you think of it, was actually done halfway seriously, by mostly mature and competent people, over a real issue.
Now ever 65+ year old talking head tries to shoehorn-in dusty references to people that were barely known to people in the 90s.
