They attempted to pull in the Imperial President after Nixon - but the safeguards were chipped away with slowly but surely. Look to what Reagan and Bush did when given the chance. The language though is the same, the same that a lothario does to their victim. Gets them drunk, uses soft pretty words, makes outlandish promises with with no intention of keeping including "I'll still respect you tomorrow". In the morning they are gone and the victim is hungover, their wallet gone, wondering what happened and why they feel cheap and likely needing professional attention.
