"They paid Nixon $18 million" - Chump wanted to ransom the documents, he expected to be paid.
"I have the right to take stuff." There it is folks, there's his motive and admission of guilt.

(131,232 posts)and he's pissed off that Nixon's documents were sold for $18M and he wasn't paid for his. Of course, the Presidential Records Act, providing that all materials generated by a president's administration belong to the government and not to the outgoing president, wasn't in effect during Nixon's administration - and Nixon didn't take classified materials. But hey, those are just details...
I bet Jack Smith just loved that interview.
