(115,693 posts)6. So far it's sounding kind of familiar -
Nixon's paranoia and hatred of the press, his attitude that you always have to win, they're for you or against you, you have to destroy your enemies. I remember Watergate well, and it's echoing loudly now.
They've interviewed some Nixon henchmen, including G. Gordon Liddy and that loathsome old rat fucker, Roger Stone. Tune in and watch!
