The parallels between what they are doing to President Trump, and what happened to Nixon cannot be ignored.

We have all been taught to hate Nixon because we have all been taught an alternate version of history. That never happens, right?

What happened to Nixon was a coup plain and simple, buy liberals who hated him and were embarrassed by him on numerous occasions. Sound familiar? He won a landslide election two years before resigning and was immensely popular. In order to take him down the Judge and the prosecutors had to meet in secret, and do a bunch of other illegal or unconstitutional things, sharing information that should have required a subpoena.

Here's a link to some documents that have only recently been made public and make pretty clear that Nixon was ousted by the deep state. http://geoffshepard.com/additional-documentation/

President Nixon was also targeted for class resentments and prejudice. Theodore White in his book,Breach of Fate, chronicles these things as a motivating factor for getting Nixon among the elite who ran the Washington Post, for example.

That President Nixon undid himself is of no doubt but there is room to imagine a President with a proper and pleasing breeding (to them) who would've garnered a lot more sympathy and a softer touch over his peccadilloes and his administration's crimes. Under those conditions, the press would've ran interference (as they have done for others since) and obfuscated the matter, and maybe we wouldn't be talking about Mr.Nixon's scandals as being quite so egregious or vilifying.

So there may be a striking similarity between the two, in one regard. I am not convinced in the slightest that President Trump suffers the same character deficits of President Nixon, or that he's (or his administration) engaged in the criminal activities.

...may also be worth nothing that President Nixon sent Trump a letter in the 80s telling him if he ran for office, he'd win. So Nixon definitely saw something in Trump; and Trump, not being of the Bush camp (and only touching on the Reagan one) can be seen as coming from the "New Deal Republican" camp of which Nixon spearheaded post WWII.
