It’s just kind of strange to keep wanting to exercise executive power and limit oversight into your own doings... That’s exactly what Nixon was trying to do, no?
Richard Nixon ordered wiretapping of political opponents, paid hush money to witnesses, destroyed evidence and ordered his staff to lie to the FBI
George H.W. Bush lawfully pardoned Caspar Weinberger and 5 others, aborting a trial and media spectacle over the Iran-Contra affair.
Nixon committed crimes and was impeached, George H.W. Bush exercised executive powers and served his full term.
