Republicans want to complete the parallel by turning Clinton into Nixon.
If trends continue ― and it’s only 11 days until Election Day ― Donald Trump could set a record, garnering a smaller percentage of the popular vote than even hapless Democrat George McGovern in 1972.
But that won’t produce an Era of Good Feelings in Washington for Hillary Clinton, even though she might win in an Electoral College landslide and make laudable history as the first woman to become president of the United States.
With each day it becomes clearer that from the start ― meaning on Election Night ― Republicans will be out to paint the second President Clinton as head of a secretive, corrupt, money-and-influence political machine: an updated, Democratic version of Richard Nixon, whom she once investigated, and who fled Washington in 1974 rather than face impeachment.
