....Nixon fired some important people in the White House who were not going to follow the orders.
....Trump fired an important person in the Justice Department who was not going to follow orders.
The names have been changed, but the results will be the same.
This will end the same as Watergate..(that is an opinion only)..But Trump has taken the Watergate
plunge, and Donald does not know it..
What do you think?..47 years ago...1973....October 1973.. Who would believe it?
Nixon was sure he could get away with it.
Trump is sure that he can get away with it.
What do you think?..Thank You for reading this..

For those who do not know about the Saturday Night Massacre..
Nixon fired important people who were investigating him...He was sure he would suffer no consequences.
...In the end, it was a major turning point in the investigation, and some republicans turned against Nixon in the days that followed. Eventually, it was one of the important events that lead to Nixon's resignation. Nixon said, "I will not resign" and "I am not a crook" during the time that followed the massacre ..
For complete information on this....hit link..It happened in October of 1973. Nixon resigned in August of 1974
