@ratemyskyperoom For some reason, there is no sign of any books by John Dean or Woodward and Bernstein on Nixon’s shelves.
@ratemyskyperoom Another book visibly absent from Nixon’s shelves is Spiro Agnew’s tale of how Nixon supposedly used assassination threats to oust him as Vice President — a memoir which Agnew gave the subtle title of “Go Quietly. . .Or Else!"
@ratemyskyperoom Perhaps Pence’s forthcoming memoir will be called “Certify Me for a Second Term. . .Or Else!"
