John Dean, former President Nixon’s White House counsel, said Monday night that former President Trump’s latest indictment in Georgia over efforts to overturn the 2020 election is “much bigger than Watergate.”
Dean made the comment on CNN, when asked by anchor Kaitlan Collins whether he sees echoes of the Nixon-era scandal in the Georgia indictment.
“It’s much bigger than Watergate,” said Dean, who gave key congressional testimony during the Nixon scandal. “It’s of a whole different dimension. It goes to the very foundation of democracy. Nixon abused some powers, he exceeded his authority when he shouldn’t, but he wasn’t taking on the basics of the country.”

Mo Dean’s favorite John is still alive?!
If this dessicated pussy were to ever open his pie-hole and talk about Biden and the rest of the Democrat Party and Brainless Left in general, I might listen to him.
But...no. I won’t.
He can’t waste oxygen much longer, and he will then go to his hot reward.
4x simultaneous and *different* indictments is the GOAT.
No mob boss, cartel leader, drug dealer or fraudster has ever pulled this off.
Every couple of years or so this old cockroach crawls out of the woodwork to spout off. FUJD.
Why isn’t he six feet under yet ?
Rat.
They trot out John Dean of Watergate fame to pontificate?
Where are Woodward and Bernstein???
Are the media trying to imply that Trump’s issues are just like Watergate? Do they want to remind us all of Watergate?
I would stand corrected, if John Dean has some unique knowledge of the legal issues with Trump, but I suspect they trotted him out because of his connection with Nixon and Watergate.
Look, we all see all of them now. We need a word for them so we don’t have to spend a lot of time explaining it to everyone. They watch and protect them. I think we should call them. “Cucks...” people like John Dean are not involved in killing little kids in satanic ritual sacrifice but they are protecting those who are involved. John Dean is a Cuck.
“a weak or servile man (often used as a contemptuous term for a man with moderate or progressive political views):
“we act like a bunch of cucks who let them take what they want”
Can we just roll with that?
And the Trump indictments have as their core a much bigger, self-serving, treasonous foundation, than your Watergate lies, John.
what did he say about Biden’s treason?
how about gore....and the illegal action of the Florida Supreme Court.
About as much as the $ 50 million in criminal bribes by foreign interests paid to the Biden family.
This f’er pops up out of the swamp, just like clockwork chirping, “Watergate, Watergate, Watergate”, then slinks back into the ooze waiting for another opportunity to remind people he isn’t dead.
If a Republican gets a ticket for littering it’s “much bigger than Watergate.” There could be video of Vladmir Putin counting out $1,000 bills and placing them in Joe Biden’s hands, and the reaction would be “nothing to see here.”
And you know these indictments are a joke when the “bigger than Watergate” lines start getting spewed by the usual suspects.
Is John Dean still a leading suspect in arranging the bugging? It’s been awhile since I saw a good review of the weight of opinion of the serious historians, as opposed to the propaganda crowd.
I have encountered three people irl who took the time to listen to Nixon’s oval office tapes. None were professional historians or political hit men; all were highly intelligent, professionally educated laymen who took enough of an interest in history and politics to go above and beyond. All three said — as have a number of the serious historians — that if you listen to the tapes, it is very clear that Nixon didn’t know what he was dealing with.
That always seemed to me to pass the Occam’s Razor test. By far the easiest way to account for Nixon’s blunders is that he was flying blind. There was a skunk at the dinner party, but who? Had Nixon known, he presumably could have tossed the culprit overboard, or found his own Bobby Baker.
That said, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen a review of the literature. Has the consensus shifted, or has the propaganda narrative simply taken over, as often happens?
They are bigger than Watergate, they show a very corrupt justice department, administration and democrat PA’s. The scandal isn’t Donald Trump, it is the authoritarian, unconstitutional attacks made on him by this democrat administration and their minions.
Hey Mr. convicted felon--quit plagiarizing Bob Woodward's 'worse than watergate' when discussing anything Trump is accused of--you're not the plagiarizer-in-chief so come up with you own 'worse/bigger than ________' phrase.
