“Nixon was also a patriot...”
I’m afraid it depends on which side of the aisle you sit. If you’re a conservative, you look at his achievements and the directions he was taking his administration when he decided to step down, even when he didn’t have to, taking full responsibility for his actions. If you’re a liberal, all he ever did was be a crook, lie to the public, and destroy the office of the president. Everything else was swept under the rug.
Now 25 years later into the 90’s we had a president that harmed the office nationally and internationally more than any combined group of presidents up to that point and he was lauded, Clinton. And the US doesn’t know half of what he did and got away with from murder to sex crimes. Doesn’t seem right does it?

Agree - Nixon ended up paying for Johnson’s sins (and those who may have thought they were “helping”). Now the Dems are blatant about what used to be “covert to cover our asses with plausible deniability” issues...and the Klintons are the ones that pushed them around that corner.
