“Nixon beat McGovern in a massive landslide = NOT ALLOWED Trump beat Hillary = NOT ALLOWED”
The media and the Democrats (but I repeat myself) were as slimy in the 70s as they have been in the last decade.
And Trumps biggest problem is that he too just quit.
That election was STOLEN from him. And we all knew it. Even Democrats.
Nixon should have disavowed that idiocy, thought up by John Dean to retrievw incriminating evidence against his wife.
We’ll see how trump does.
Sounds like he’ll have his chance to show how he’snot a quitter.....he’s about to be endicted on some bullshit charges in New York.....he might wanna focus on that not something that happened 50 years ago.
Nixon knew that he was going down. He recognized he had lost his political base.
Self awareness is a good trait in life.
I still remember the front page of the tabloid newspaper THE STAR headline. JEAN DIXON SAYS NIXON WILL NOT RESIGN!
It hit the news stands the very day Nixon resigned. I now wish I had bought a copy.
Ten years later Dixon’s publicity department was claiming she had predicted the resignation. NO SHE DID NOT!
For those who don’t remember Jean Dixon, in the 1950s up till her death she was considered an accurate psychic. I cannot remember any “prophecies” she made that came true.

Trump said he would never have quit like Roberto Duran did against Sugar Ray Leonard.
looking back at Nixion it is obvious to me that Nixion had a deep state hit on his Presidency. the same individuals that did the hit on trump were the interns and the new to DC political crowd that are involved in the Jan 6th recreation of a Reichstag burning. this last 10 years has been verry educational to me when viewing past events that got highly politized. I now look on past history with healthy a skeptics mind as to what I am being told happened.,
All this tells me is Trump has no grasp of what happened to Nixon. I look at Watergate as another Deep State plan to rid itself of a president and that is about exactly what happened.
Both had elections stolen from them and both quit. At least Trump made a stink about it, but he still quit.
Nixon was a typical Republican politician. He was a quitter who surrounded himself with quitters.
He refused to challenge the vote fraud in Chicago in 1960 and gave the election to the Democrats. He should have fought harder for his presidency in 1974. Bill Clinton would never have resigned under similar circumstances.
Republicans have always been willing to surrender too easily.
The Bush administrations were horrible. They never fought back.
We need fighters. Not wimps.
Watergate looks pale in comparison to the shenanigans other Democrats have done over the years.
It showed the power of having the media in their corner.
