There’s also the issue of: How far down does the partisan rot from Attorney General Barr go down?
The DOJ was arguing very recently (hypocritically using the Voter Rights Act, no less) for the Citizenship Question to be on the 2020 Census (which was so terribly argued, even the SCOTUS, partisan as it is, struck it down).
When the DOJ investigates Silicon Valley, how do we know it wont be selectively targeting companies that might tend to favor D’s and leave those that favor R’s alone? (The Trump Tax cut was laden with D-harming, R-affirming sections; eg, limiting the SALT deduction)
Absolutely. Nixon was unaccountably able to recover his reputation subsequently and live in denial to his death. And most people STILL dont know that “Watergate” is much, much more than the Watergate break-in. A full allocution by Nixon would have made this perfectly clear, as Nixon would say. (But at least Ford destroyed his reelection attempt because of it.)
Also, dont forget: Bush should never have pardoned the Iran-Contra felons (with whom he should have been found culpable).
