Nixon years redux ?
It is headed in that direction for now.

I have to say, I really hope that a scandal destroys this Presidency before this presidency destroys the United States.

Re: Nixon years redux ?
During the Watergate years is when the phrase “the cover-up can become worse than the crime” was first coined.
In the end, an investigation by a special prosecutor and Congress pushed Nixon to resign before his imminent impeachment. We’ve heard and seen this story before, and now it seems as a similar set of allegations of corruption pile up against another Republican President, he and his administration’s desperate efforts to douse the flames of scandal may ultimate do more damage and harm him than they will help him.
