Nixon tried to get away with some stuff and unfortunately (for him) failed. Trump has no such insight, he's looking at his job from a business perspective where money is the prime mover. He's almost right, but the point is getting closer where the loss of connections and influence will overshadow this. I think he'll fall a lot further than he climbed.

I put this question to a group of older folks who remember vividly the Watergate era-“Is this worse?” They came back at me with a wholehearted yes. The difference, they said, is that no one seems to be able to stop him and the Republicans in particular are complicit. I hate what’s happening to my country.

Nixon was a crook, but he was calculating and a savvy politician. Trump's something else. I think he's rich, lazy and self-centered. He's been cheating so long he can't tell the difference between right and wrong, truth or fiction. It's made him careless.

What Trump is doing, and what he did before the world, is illegal and he needs to be called on it. I'm hoping Mueller can do something about it. Republicans are covering for him and enabling him as he does illegal act after illegal act. All the enablers need to go to jail in the end.
