Clyburn: Nixon ‘Did Things on the Same Order That Trump Is Doing’

On Saturday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “AM Joy,” House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-SC) stated that former President Richard Nixon “did things on the same order that Trump is doing.”

Clyburn said, “When it came to Richard Nixon several years ago, we never had to get to impeachment. Because he stonewalled. He fired people. He did things on the same order that Trump is doing. But it finally caught up with him. … We could very well, through these hearings, come up with that smoking gun that will do for us today what those tapes did with Richard Nixon before.”
