Vice President JD Vance recently shared his thoughts on the Watergate scandal, stating it would be a brief news story in today’s fast-paced media landscape. Vance, who was speaking at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library in Yorba Linda, California, noted that the legacy of the 37th president is experiencing a renaissance.
Parallels to Trump’s Presidency
Vance drew parallels between Nixon’s presidency and that of Donald Trump, suggesting that both were targeted by ‘deep state’ forces. He pointed out that the story of how the deep state took down Nixon is not dissimilar from what happened to Trump during his first administration.
Vance also noted his own similarities with Nixon, saying, ‘Young senator, vice president, writes some bestselling books, is hated by the media… it kind of sounds like JD Vance.’ He expressed his admiration for Nixon, stating, ‘I’ve always liked Richard Nixon.’
