I'm serious. Given what I know is possible in this Trump situation, I'd much rather have Nixon and KEEP him rather than deal with this insanity. The choice of Nixon or Trump would be easy. I'm sure Nixon wasn't the only POTUS to overstep his bounds and the way Trump is going he will start another world war.
