Crazy I now live in a country where six FedSoc assholes have codified Nixon's "Well, when the president does it, that means that it is not illegal" assertion into actual practice.

It's like "The Boys." The SCOTUS Six knew the quote from the Frost interviews was famous, but they thought that was because everyone agreed with it. Meanwhile, the rest of us understood it was famous because it was shocking and obviously wrong.

Yep. Nixon's view of Presidential power remains the conservative ideal. It's the height of "political power exists to punish enemies and aid allies" thinking that motivates the modern right. The rest of us view that quote with horror.
