At times, President Trump has behaved far worse than Nixon did.
Not a season passes without new disclosures showing Nixon's numerous attempts at criminal use of his presidential powers and in fact the scorn he held for the rule of law.
If President Trump will not remove White House officials who are clearly violating the law, he's not doing his job and this would be yet another grounds for Congress considering impeaching and removing the president.
We will never know if any other president approached Nixon in paranoia, profanity or potential criminality, since only his conversations were captured, subpoenaed and ultimately released on the front pages of newspapers.
Richard Nixon has acted in a manner contrary to his trust as President and subversive of Constitutional Government, to the great prejudice of law and justice and to the manifest injury of the people of the U. S.
[Referring to Richard Nixon:] There are frightening implications for the future of our country if we do not impeach the President of the United States ... If we fail to impeach, we have condoned and left unpunished a course of conduct totally inconsistent with reasonable expectations of the American people.
The Watergate is a hotel in Washington where Nixon operatives broke in to steal campaign information from the Democratic Party. Nixon's people subsequently described that act as a 'third-rate burglary.' In the same manner, Clinton has described the FBI investigation of her email escapades as 'a security review.'
I hope my order ending taping set a precedent that will end Presidential taping in the White House.
