To those of you alive when Nixon was around ... [View all]

I never thought we'd be in a situation as deep as we were with Nixon. But we've gone deeper. Nixon was terrible. Trump is deplorable. I just pray we'll get through this. With the lackeys Trump has in Congress and the Supreme Court, it's difficult to see right now. But we got through January 6. We can do it again.
