Just watched All The President's Men - Nixon admin talked about the press just like Trump does

[adigal]

Called them Democrats; said it was shameful, shabby journalism; said their journalism was suspect. All the things we are hearing from the Trump idiots, right out of the Nixon administration playbook.

1. Nixon on meth. Nixon was clever and organized while Trump

is a train wreck. It took two years for Watergate to catch up with Nixon; let's hope Trump steps on enough rakes to destroy his administration a lot faster than that.

2. I've seen that movie many times and still get nervous during the parking garage scene

Even as he's walking out and getting away from the place in a hurry I'm squirming. Makes me think how dangerous it can be to be a journalist even right here in the States.

3. Especially now again...Trump is stupid and reckless. nt
