Do you think Trumpy is watching the Watergate documentary right now?

Do you think he sees himself in Nixon or this scandal in Watergate?
Woodward said that at the end Nixon seemed to get it that, yeah, HE destroyed himself. Wonder if Trumpy would ever have that epiphany.

it's not on Fox. Anyhow, Trump is incapable of introspection; if anything he'd think Nixon was framed or unjustly hounded out of office - current Trump supporters Ben Stein and Pat Buchanan still believe that - and he wouldn't relate Watergate to his own situation.

He's probably spending most of his time trying to figure out how to f up Father's Day. You know, make everyone else miserable as he sucks the oxygen out of the earth's atmosphere.

But I'm going to go watch it. It's recorded and I hope it's a good one. Living through it was a wild time. I was shocked when he resigned. Never thought the sweaty old fucker would do it.
