Nixon Hits CTRL+Z

from CTRL+Z: Rewritten · host Kevin Perez-Allen

On August 8, 1974, Richard Nixon announced his resignation rather than face near-certain impeachment and removal. Barry Goldwater told him he had 15 votes. He needed 34. So he quit. But what if he didn't? What if Nixon told Goldwater to go to hell and forced the United States Senate to remove him? The trial would have been the biggest television event in American history, playing out during a midterm election, with a president who still controlled the military, the intelligence agencies, and the nuclear codes. What happens to the country? What happens to the Republican Party? And does the politics of grievance that defines America right now show up 40 years earlier?
