JD Vance: "I I joked that if Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12 hours news story. The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy"

"JD Vance works for the most corrupt president in American history. So of course he wants you to believe Watergate was nothing.

Vance joked that if Watergate happened today it would be a “12 hour news story.” Let’s remember what Nixon actually did.

Operatives tied to his reelection campaign broke into the Democratic National Committee headquarters to plant listening devices. Then Nixon personally orchestrated the cover up. The “smoking gun” tape caught him ordering the CIA to shut down the FBI’s investigation.

That is obstruction of justice, in his own voice, on tape.

The House Judiciary Committee identified 36 separate instances of obstruction. It approved three articles of impeachment, with Republicans joining Democrats.

Nixon weaponized the IRS and FBI against his political enemies, authorized burglaries of private citizens, and fired the special prosecutor investigating him in what is called the Saturday Night Massacre. When the Supreme Court ordered him to release the tapes, the vote was unanimous. Even his most loyal defenders walked away once they heard his own words.

Vance is telling us a president can break the law, lie about it, and turn federal agencies into weapons, and we should all just go along with it.

There is a reason he wants the bar that low. When you serve an administration this corrupt, the only way to look clean is to convince the public that crimes no longer count.

He’s wrong. They did then, and they do now.

History will not be kind to JD Vance."
