I have been so intrigued watching Watergate documentaries on YouTube. It truly brings into perspective what is happening today. I couldn’t understand why so many people around Trump don’t step and say, “This is wrong,” until I watched the documentary.
When you are in The Oval everything is about serving the President. It stops being about country for some people and their only focus is on pleasing the President. Everything they are exist in the bubble of the White House. They enjoy being a part of the “inner circle.”
While many of them have no actual power, the proximity to power is all they desire. They’ll do anything the Pres. wants even if that means suspending reality, lying, committing crimes, perjury, whatever it takes to keep the President in power and stay in the Pres. good graces.
Many of them are so far gone they believe they are serving country and cannot see they are merely serving a man that is crooked. Even with the tapes some people refused to believe Nixon committed crimes. Everything about Watergate reminds me of today.
The saving grace were the two journalists, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein. Even with attacks on the media, they remained vigilant and kept the story of Watergate in the headlines until it couldn’t be ignored. I wonder who will be our Woodward and Bernstein today?
