Nixon Resigned for This… So Why Didn’t Trump?
In 1974, a sitting president faced overwhelming evidence of obstruction of justice—and resigned before he could be removed from office. But fast forward to today, and the question is unavoidable: would the same outcome happen now?
In this episode of The Journalism of Everything, Darisse Smith breaks down the Watergate scandal, the impeachment process, and the moment Richard Nixon realized his own party would no longer protect him. From the break-in at the Watergate complex to the “Smoking Gun” tape, this is the inside story of how presidential power collided with accountability.
Then we turn to the modern era—examining parallels with Donald Trump, including allegations of obstruction of justice, the use of executive power, and the shifting political landscape that may have changed the rules entirely.
Has the standard for presidential behavior changed?
Would Nixon survive in today’s political climate?
And what does this mean for the future of American democracy?
This episode connects past and present to ask one central question:
Was Watergate the exception—or the last time accountability truly worked?
