WH gang would have had to be 20 or older at the time for it to make an impression.
Spicer is supposed to be 35, bout same age as Ivanka and Kushner, and you know how dumb THEY are.
Trump does not have a habit of having really smart people around him.
I bet you that at the point of loaded gun, they could not tell you why exactly Nixon earned impeachment threats.
At the most it would be "Nixon-resigned-impeachment maybe"

Hubris is very thick with these idjits.
