Trump is Nixon without a brain.

Nixon had a brain and he went down. What do you think is going to happen to Trump? Justice will catch up to Trump. There is no way in hell this is sustainable.

I hope Mueller's tenacity is a match for the combination of Trump's brainlessness and the complicity of Congress.

He cheated for his own power. He didn't sell his country to foreign enemies for money and power.

Nixon’s signature is on the Clean Air and Clean Water Acts. Nixon created the EPA. Nixon, as bad as he was, did many things progressives like. Nixon wanted to go down in history as a great statesman.

Trump is different. He cares nothing of history. He has two goals: destroy the government and make his bank account bigger.

If you want to get rid of Trump once and for all, write a law giving presidents 14 days of vacation per year and no more.
