SCARBOROUGH I I I ░░░░░░░░ in 1974 my father ░░░░░░░░ the newspaper accounts of ░░░░░░░░ Nixon tapes after they ░░░░░░░░ released And my father ░░░░░░░░ our family I was ░░░░░░░░ then and I heard ░░░░░░░░ father and our family ░░░░░░░░ many friends in suburban ░░░░░░░░ of Doorville Georgia defending ░░░░░░░░ Nixon saying that Richard ░░░░░░░░ had always been hated ░░░░░░░░ the media since Alger ░░░░░░░░ that Walter Cronkite my ░░░░░░░░ said was a communist ░░░░░░░░ the fact he watched ░░░░░░░░ Cronkite every night and ░░░░░░░░ Walter Cronkite said that ░░░░░░░░ the way it is ░░░░░░░░ actually believed Walter Cronkite ░░░░░░░░ still my father defended ░░░░░░░░ Nixon until the very ░░░░░░░░ and then he heard ░░░░░░░░ tapes after the Supreme ░░░░░░░░ ruled unanimously that the ░░░░░░░░ had to be released ░░░░░░░░ I remember watching my ░░░░░░░░ read the paper that ░░░░░░░░ and we were actually ░░░░░░░░ that point in upstate ░░░░░░░░ York but I remember ░░░░░░░░ father reading the newspaper ░░░░░░░░ just saying shaking his ░░░░░░░░ if this man has ░░░░░░░░ half of what the ░░░░░░░░ says he has done ░░░░░░░░ if these tapes are ░░░░░░░░ fact Nixon saying these ░░░░░░░░ tapes then he is ░░░░░░░░ fit to be president ░░░░░░░░ the United States And ░░░░░░░░ the way I told ░░░░░░░░ story in a documentary ░░░░░░░░ Watergate about a decade ░░░░░░░░ So it has nothing ░░░░░░░░ with Donald Trump it ░░░░░░░░ everything to do with ░░░░░░░░ father and how long ░░░░░░░░ defended Richard Nixon and ░░░░░░░░ long our family defends ░░░░░░░░ Nixon on the Watergate ░░░░░░░░ and that it took ░░░░░░░░ s own voice and ░░░░░░░░ Nixon s own voice ░░░░░░░░ understand that this wasn ░░░░░░░░ Bob Woodward and Carl ░░░░░░░░ going out against a ░░░░░░░░ Republican anti communist president ░░░░░░░░ was Richard Nixon who ░░░░░░░░ died politically by his ░░░░░░░░ sword Claire McCaskill last ░░░░░░░░ Carl Bernstein the other ░░░░░░░░ obviously of that famous ░░░░░░░░ that brought down the ░░░░░░░░ presidency with their reporting ░░░░░░░░ in so doing changed ░░░░░░░░ forever Carl Bernstein said ░░░░░░░░ Trump tapes these Woodward ░░░░░░░░ were were far more ░░░░░░░░ and would be far ░░░░░░░░ impactful historically than the ░░░░░░░░ tapes ever were because ░░░░░░░░ many people died as ░░░░░░░░ result of what Donald ░░░░░░░░ admitted to on these ░░░░░░░░ I m curious as ░░░░░░░░ who lived through Watergate ░░░░░░░░ now is living through ░░░░░░░░ do you agree with ░░░░░░░░ Bernstein MCCASKILL I do ░░░░░░░░ think what these tapes ░░░░░░░░ in a bold and ░░░░░░░░ fashion they prove that ░░░░░░░░ have a president who ░░░░░░░░ a liar and is ░░░░░░░░ to kill Americans And ░░░░░░░░ can t say it ░░░░░░░░ plainly than that He ░░░░░░░░ killing Americans with his ░░░░░░░░ Thousands and thousands of ░░░░░░░░ died because Donald Trump ░░░░░░░░ to lie about the ░░░░░░░░ of this disease and ░░░░░░░░ it was spread Now ░░░░░░░░ s going to spin ░░░░░░░░ which is unbelievable to ░░░░░░░░ with a straight face ░░░░░░░░ to America Well I ░░░░░░░░ t want anybody to ░░░░░░░░ He s running a ░░░░░░░░ based on fear and ░░░░░░░░ His entire campaign is ░░░░░░░░ making Americans afraid People ░░░░░░░░ the suburbs afraid that ░░░░░░░░ people are going to ░░░░░░░░ in I mean it ░░░░░░░░ ridiculous how he s ░░░░░░░░ his presidency on hate ░░░░░░░░ and panic and now ░░░░░░░░ s trying to sell ░░░░░░░░ B S that Oh ░░░░░░░░ this was just about ░░░░░░░░ America calm It wasn ░░░░░░░░ It was about protecting ░░░░░░░░ politically and trying to ░░░░░░░░ his economy that he ░░░░░░░░ as his that was ░░░░░░░░ ticket to re election ░░░░░░░░ other thing these tapes ░░░░░░░░ is this man is ░░░░░░░░ too dumb to be ░░░░░░░░ of the United States ░░░░░░░░ mean he s just ░░░░░░░░ Who does this Who ░░░░░░░░ 18 interviews with Bob ░░░░░░░░ within two months of ░░░░░░░░ election Who does that ░░░░░░░░ they re going to ░░░░░░░░ out right before the ░░░░░░░░ Only the most stupid ░░░░░░░░ in America would do ░░░░░░░░ He is too dumb ░░░░░░░░ lead the greatest nation ░░░░░░░░ the planet BRZEZINSKI Well ░░░░░░░░ word some would use ░░░░░░░░ what has happened is ░░░░░░░░
