Comment on DOJ wants to scrap Watergate-era rule that makes presidential records publicparent

Comments

Right but who is going to prosecute? the Department of Justice?

You know you have to give Nixon credit he slinked away before it ended in a shoot out between the SS and the FBI on the White House lawn.

In a way that might have been preferable. It would raise the bar a bit. No doubt Trump is aware of what happened to Nixon and thought 'ok, so you can get away with it' and then realized that in this situation he could just completely ignore any kind of potential fall out. The thing that boggles the mind is that this could be fixed in 24 hours.
