Summary:
Thinking back to President Nixon's resignation in 1974 due to the Watergate scandal, it almost seems juvenile by today's level of scandals. Nevertheless, Nixon resigned. (He would have been impeached by the Senate anyway, most likely.)Now we have a geriatric, senile old man who can't find his way off a stage or put intelligible sentences together and who is under pressure from his own party but won't step down for the good of the country. The total collapse of integrity and accountability from 50 years ago. No surprise.Today, we lack leaders like Nixon. None of the current figures would make the same decision he did, especially for an issue that would be considered minor by today's standards.
