John Dean On Trump

The Atlantic: 'He Is Going to Test Our Democracy as It Has Never Been Tested' - Why Nixon's former lawyer John Dean worries Trump could be one of the most corrupt presidents ever—and get away with it by McKay Coppins
“I don’t think Richard Nixon even comes to close to the level of corruption we already know about Trump.”

“By nature, I am an optimist...But Trump as president is going to be about surviving disaster.”

Great article from Mr. Dean. Trumpf is not just about the power he's about greed and hopefully, it will be his undoing. We'll see Dean is less optimistic on this pt. He thinks Trumpf has so much power that he'll get away with it all. Maybe. BV$H certainly did, so maybe he's right.

Yes, it is a good article. Thanks for pointing this one out. I mean it's John Dean FFS. The irony itself is overwhelming.
