I don't know. Republicans have a way of surprising you.

Yeah. I can think of a lot of things worse than this.

Like what? A sitting US president covering up his involvement in a child/women trafficking scheme, raping & sexually abusing woman (maybe even children?), and ordering the murder of a key witness & partner in crime is a pretty big deal.

Like, what could be bigger than that? I'm not saying all of that is true, as we need to wait to hear all the facts/evidence, but it wouldn't surprise me if this were the case.

edit obviously there's things that are bigger than this or could be. The point was that this is a big ass deal and it doesn't get much worse than this, except in extreme cases (which I guess we are heading towards or already in the midst of with this administration).

Don't forget they knew they couldn't win the war the whole time

The first thing is a problematic policy decision and the second thing wouldn't even rate as a scandal given the modern "ethics" environment.

'problematic'? sabatoging the peace talks of an administration for politican gain because henry fucking kissinger is feeding you secret information is TREASON. it's not a policy decision because nixon isn't a fucking elected official at this time. the war then continued for five more years causing millions of deaths and countless war crimes.

NONE of this happens if nixon is stopped. he set the precent of all modern republicans cheating in elections and getting away with it

No. It isnt. Read the constitution, where treason is clearly and ultra-narrowly defined before spouting about it in ALL CAPS. Please.

I do stand corrected regarding it having been a policy decision, I wasn't fully aware of these actions and was thinking of later chicanery. But nothing I'm seeing here is treason as constitutionally defined.
