  1. Santos/Trump both represent the state of the Republican Party. It's not the party of Lincoln. It's the party of Nixon.

  2. ​ @alansimmons9744  Lincoln was known as honest Abe. Nixon was known as TrickyDick. There's nothing honest about this republican party. But it is rather tricky and dickish.

  5. ​ @jamesburrows5404  So true. On Aug. 7, 1974, Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., House Minority Leader John Rhodes, R-Ariz., and Senate Minority Leader Hugh Scott, R-Pa., made it clear to Nixon that he faced all-but-certain impeachment, conviction, and removal from office in connection with the Watergate scandal... Nixon announced his resignation the next day, which would be effective at noon on Aug 9, 1974. In his 2006 book "Conservatives Without Conscience," former Nixon White House Counsel John Dean wrote that the Capitol Hill trio "traveled to the White House to tell Nixon it was time to resign." In his 1988 autobiography, Goldwater wrote that after hearing their grim assessment, Nixon "knew beyond any doubt, that one way or another, his presidency was finished." This was back when the Republican party still had at least a modicum of dignity, decency, integrity, and a sense of right and wrong. Those days are long gone.
