Yeah, all I get from that article is a lot of "I want things to be like I thought they were like when I was a child and didn't know any better." Like, aren't all the idiots in that article calling out the years when they were children? Joy McCoy, 31, says the Reagan administration is when America was "great"; Trivett, 70, says it was "before Vietnam"; Martin,59, says it was the 1970s.

So basically it's really just about making all the bad stuff you became aware of once you hit adulthood go away, great job, Trump voters.

Nixon believed that the tapes would be useful to history, and for his library. A few months before the Watergate scandal broke, he ordered them destroyed, but for some reason they weren't.

He probably believed he could retain control of the tapes as only a small number of White House staff even knew the system existed. Once the taping system was revealed during the Watergate investigation, he claimed executive privilege and that the content of the tapes were vital to national security in order to try to keep them secret.
