- Zigurd 8y agoBill Clinton was impeached by the House and tried in the Senate for obstruction and lying to a grand jury. The case was too weak. It didn't work out well. I don't recall any related prosecutions or indictments. So that's a pretty big difference. Several guilty pleas. Several ongoing investigations. A couple trials coming up... I was aware enough of the news to follow Watergate. Trump's corruption looks to me to be worse than Watergate. Firing Comey and then telling McGhan to fire Mueller is a slow-motion Saturday Night Massacre by itself, and that's just scratching the surface. Nixon was never a national security threat except for being drunk off his ass.
