i think richard nixon would have accepted the indictment. ah richard nixon cared.n though he committed crimes. he cared about the institutions of this country and he wanted his legacy to be that he was a great president donald trump has yet to show that he cares about the institution of the presidency. tim thank you very much, really great. to get the historical perspective. always we're gonna have much more on today's events. donald trump arrested and arraigned. the next. some election results are coming in to cnn in chicago and wisconsin races that have implications for some of the most hotly debated issues facing this country. wait have you surrounded your lord back with scotts turf builder to ripple action gets three jobs done at once kill swedes prevents cab gas and keeps it growing strong bag of scots triple action today. it's guaranteed fee alone. feed it. here's your pachute certain it's okay. are you foreign prin certain. certainty matters, so congratulate coworkers or say thank you with promotional products from four imprint dot com imprint for certain si

so richard nixon, for example. i was indicted simply because i was not indicted about what was facing criminal charges almost because he had been doing something that was wrong. but he resigned in time because he was hoping for a presidential pardon which he got in the end that would never happen today. never, why is that? what does this say about the state of american politics at this point in time compared to some of the nixon europe? well, for one thing, trump has a lot of backing in his own party. nixon didn't have that nixon had to resign because it was bipartisan consensus at the man have to go on the a. and the other thing is that joe biden will not pardon donald trump if it even came to that. gerald ford did that simply because he believed that this was the best way to bring the nation back together and to continue a period of, you know, p seeking and mutual understanding and all of that. that's not at all the situation that the nation is in today. can you imagine a bipartisan agreement on how to treat a ca

after those, we'll hear from richard nixon, 1969. richard nixon talked abt e great silent majority. and in 1974, he resigned from office beginning now. here's lyndon johnson. president hatcher. governor romney. senators mcnamara and hart. congressman meader and stabler. and other members of the pine michigan delegation. members of the graduating class. my fellow americans, it is a great pleasure to be here today. this universe today has been coeducational. since 1870, but i do not believe it was on the basis of your accomplishments that a detroit high school girl said, and i ot in choosing a college, you first have to decide whether you want a coeducational school or aeducational school. well, we can find both here at michigan, although perhaps a different ours. i came out here today very anxious to meet the michigan student whose father told a friend of mine that his son's education had been a real value. it stopped his mother from bragging about him. i have come today from the turmoil of your capital to the tranquility of your campus to speak about the future of your country. the

richard nixon saw that women could be strong leaders, community leaders as well as career women and others and wives as well as home. they can have it all. mrs. nixon and president nixon had that vision and modeling growing up. i wanted to talk a little bit about also his two daughters trish and julie who represented the younger generation of republican women who strongly believed that women should be able to do whatever they wanted to just like both of their parents did. women could be in the workplace and also at home to do it all. they supported like her mother's , to elevate women in the government and working world. here we have president nixon with barbara hackman franklin and her job was to get more women into higher-level government positions. when barbara franklin comes into the nixon administration into the west wing to do her work, i will tell you more about that, context between barbara's move into the nixon administration as staff assistant to the president this assignment to get more women in government, keep in mind we had the advent of the birth control pill in 1960 freeing

finally, richard nixon, by far his close this friend among the presidents. but as hoover started to get old and it defies some of what nixon wanted him to do, there are some funny moments where hoover says, that is illegal. j edgar hoover is the civil libertarian there. there is a moment where nixon sits down with hoover and says, edgar, you are in your mid-70's wouldn't it be fun to go? and it nixon says, ok and kind of gives in to hoover. who is more powerful the fbi director or the president? >> the fbi headquarters is the j edgar hoover building still today. what was his reputation among agents? >> i think the agents really respected hoover. he built the institution in his own image. really in the early years especially, hand selected agents that represented him and his views, a very particular image. when we think of an fbi agent or a g-man, there are very specific ideas about who that is. will it be a tall white guy in a suit with a hat and shiny shoes and a certain set of political views. during his lifetime, i do not think agents loved him. he was a h

the last team left town and 71, and that is a segway of richard nixon. it is a huge baseball fan, and he immediately had a meeting with the mayor, walter washington. i found this on a recorded tape, and he thought he could lure the white sox here. he predicted that by 1976, the other carter one, there would be a bicentennial. he was off by 28 years. >> we were also told that the senators would leave, and there was a -- when they were leaving, and for the 71 season, there was an attempt by a number of locals to get nixon involved in trying to get a team to replace the senators. but apparently, the white house, according to some information we had, the white house refused to get involved. publicly, they said it is a shame in a tragedy that they were getting involved, but behind the scenes, he was trying to do something. i don't think it was much beyond that meeting with the mayor of washington. >> do you consider nixon the greatest baseball fan among u.s. presidents? >> definitely. >> he probably has some competition from woodrow wilson. wilson went out to

as much as we're saying, this is unprecedented, and gerald ford did save richard nixon's bacon. ah to some to some respect back in those days. yes, i know. i never thought jim that we would that i might say that richard nixon offers some lessons about how to deal with scandal. you know, we just did. it seemed beyond the pale, but the truth is, um, they did nixon handled it. well he fought like hell until he was pinned down. but then he then he basically surrendered, he said a bid for the good of the country. i'm going to resign. and that was that was a gutsy thing to do. it took a lot of as you can imagine out of him emotionally. and then ford had the i think the courage to um then let let nixon off the hook. and when he and i think that was a huge step forward as well, many court may have lost the election as election because of pardoning richard nixon was years later. the kennedy library gives an annual award for courage and politics and the kennedy library. remembering this democratic icon gave that award a few years ago to gerald ford, the republican because ford had acted

richard nixon was an unindicted co-conspirator. there were charges of all sorts of things.of others. gerald ford gave him a pardon. he said that the american people could not stand the idea of an ex-president going on trial. the cost of that has been presidents like donald trump think thabeing president gives you an immunity free zone, you can do almost anything you want and the worst punishment is going to be the punishment that went to richard nixon, which was retirement to a pretty nice-looking seaside home. geoff: there were students of history who say gerald ford should not have pardoned richard nixon. tell me more about that. >> me t i believe that very strongly. i spoke to gerald ford in 1995 and i said, with all due respect, why couldn't you at least have waited to pardon nixon until he was indicted in the trial had begun or at least fingerprinted so he couldn't go onnd tell people that he had done nothing wrong, which is basically what he did. ford said essentially he felt he did not have the stomach for it and he thought he would be too distracting as he tried to

>> well, i think the richard nixon history was really epic, neil.ou had a situation where he was on the verge of being indicted for multiple counts of criminal activity following you know the threats to impeach him. that's why he resigned but more importantly that's why gerald ford when he succeeded nixon pardoned him. i would love president biden to pardon president trump right now. do it now. do it to heal the country. these are not significant criminal charges coming up in manhattan. these are related to a 17-year-old liaison with a porn star that this office, under the previous district attorney, cyrus vance passed on, or paused on. the federal prosecutors similarly reviewed all of this evidence and decided not to prosecute. for this particular district attorney, alvin bragg, at this particular time to bring this specific action is farcical. these are chump charges. i broke with president trump over january 6th and his activities leading up to january 6th. i thought that what he did was un-american and very, very dangerous but that has been revi

richard nixon he didn't want, but his first epa head, william ruckelshaus stood up really strong and told nixon, you me had ap. i looked at all this stuff and we can't use it anymore. and nixon said that he was really livid about it. nixon to be honest, to be fair, he did it. he was angry because i'm going to lose the ranchers, you know, i'm going to lose the you. his worry politically with the cost one his side but he did it. nixon and after that revolution kicks in and the big key for kennedy had picked command stuart udall as secretary of interior, our finest during these years we get things like canyonlands national park created in utah big battle, the north cascades in washington state national park, california, ground zero. in my book on a lot of this stuff for example the battle of bodega bay i don't know how you care or think about nuclear power because it depends on my mood sometimes but in i understand that the complications of all of that with anything nuclear but i will tell you what shot it down really it was that the pacific your electric pacific you're the california el

and if richard nixon - when richard nixon left if agnew still vice president, he would then become viceresident, he would be cloaked with the immunity that the government policy bestows upon presidents, he would have cloud overhanging him for th remainder of his term. that was his big chip. and he bargained that chip awa to avoid jail. that's what happened it was very contentious. myself, barney, and timmy, w argued at length with elliot richardson, the attorney general, about treating vice president agnew like everybody else, that he should b indicted, he should stand tria if he wants to, he could defen himself, and if he was convicted he should be sentenced to imprisonment. elliott richardson, in the context of watergate, older an wiser than the three of us realized that it was very very important as a policy decision to get agnew away from succession, a heartbeat away from the presidency. that's what brought that cas to a close in addition to agnew knowing that we had built a solid case against him. it was airtight. and he knew, if he went to trial, he was going to b convicted and he

you have been open tha the pardon of richard nixon, i caused a lot of the problems that we still see today. so do you see the indictment o former president trump as step to remedying some of thos problems >> absolutely. it is something that i have regretted ever since watergate. that we wer unsuccessful in convincing - the special prosecutor tha richard nixon should b reunited. indicted i argued he should be indicted once he was sitting presiden and then once again clearl after he resigned. the evidenc was clear. the case would have been very very clear. this is way to prevent a futur miscreant from doing the sam thing. if richard nixon ha been indicted, there is possible possibility - although i'm not so sure given donald trump's character. bu possibly he would have bee counseled that he could not ge away with things. and i also want to point out that w indicted the top people in the white house, and a campaig march. we went to trial in september, we had a verdict on january 1st. so all the stuf -- and that was with all of the advantages of the federa system allows for delay. so in

him is that what we want the term witch hunt in moder times was originated by none other than richard nixonainst hi in the watergate scandal tha he did not deserve anything of >> interestingly, becaus donald trump wrote a letter to nixon in 1993 praising him as great man. he writes, you are a great man i will always have and alway will have the utmost respected admiration for you i am proud to know you there was a photograph tha nixon sent donald trump. it doesn't seem like donal trump ever quite registere that nixon did some things tha were actually bad for th country. >> he may have actuall register that nixon did do bad things and got away with them. nixon, very, well might have gone to prison for conspiracy, for obstruction of justice, fo possibly for perjury and the prosecutor, lee and, whoriskey at the time, if he had not been pardoned by geral floors so how can you be surprise that donald trump would say, along with nixon, is you can almost read on our democracy which nixon did, and then have a different way of life for 20 years. >> the already know is that started with little spin,

. >> i feel that richard nixon his loved ones have suffered enough and will continue to suffer.r. ford, president of the united states, do grant a full, free, and absolute pardon on to richard nixon. >> george: and with that, gerald ford prevented richard nixon from being the first american president to face charges. instead, that will go to donald trump on tuesday. our roundtable chris christie, donna brazile, jon karl and julie payson. you've not reacted to the indictment. >> you know, i didn't, george, because, in fact, i'd like to read it first. you know, one of the things i found really amazing on both sides of this is that people are willing to comment on the efficacy of an indictment before you've even read it. having done this for seven years -- >> george: as a prosecutor? >> -- right. one, with alvin bragg, an elected prosecutor, democrat, i wonder whether this is really increasing the public safety of the people of manhattan by going after a 7-year-old charge for a hush money payment. >> george: should that be a factor in whether or not he makes the decision? >> sure.

and a board his resignatio enabled richard nixon to remak the supreme court from a liberal leaning supremert, to a conservative leanin supreme court. the democrats called on a boar is to resign from the suprem court and knew that th republican, richard nixon that would get to replace him, bu they still demanded hi resignation. this guy was the first democratic senator to demand a protest resign from the suprem court. he went on to serve as jimmy carter's vice president, and then the democratic nominee fo president in 1984. who lost 49 states to ronald reagan it never crossed senators -- mind that abe fortas should no resign because there is republican president the democratic-controlled hous of representatives was threatening to impeach the supreme court justice appointe by the democratic presiden because of that $20,000 that abe fortas received, and returned abe for this did nothing compared to what clarenc thomas has done. nothing. in his resignation letter ford said there has been a n wrongdoing on my part. there has been no default an the performance of my judicial duties and the accor

that has not happened before. 1974, richard nixon was an undicted co-conspirator.ere charges of all sorts of things -- obstruction of justice and others. gerald ford gave him a pardon a month after nixon quit, in that picture we just saw. he said the american people could not stand the idea of an ex-president going on trial. well, the cost of that has been presidents like donald trump apparently think that being president gives you an immunity free zone. you can do almost anything you want and the worst punishment will be the punishment that went to richard nixon which was retirement to a nice seaside home. geoff: to draw you out on that historical analogue, there were students of history who said gerald ford should not have pardoned richard nixon. tell me more about that. michael: me too. i believe that very strongly. i spoke to gerald ford in 1995. his ski house in colorado. i said with all due respect, why couldn't you have at least waited to pardon nixon until he was indicted and the trial had begun or at least fingerprinted so he could not go on and tell peopl

. >> i feel >> i feel that richard nixon and his loved ones have suffered enough and will continue toatter what i do. now therefore, i, gerald r ford, president of the united states, do grant a full free and absolute pardon onto richard nixon. >> george: and with that, gerald ford defended richard nixon from being the first american president to face charges. that will go to donald trump on tuesday. we will talk about that. chris christie, to preserve, jon karl, and i have to begin with you, you have not reacted to that. >> i did not because in fact, i would like to read it first. you know, one of the things that i found really amazing on both sides of this is that people are willing to comment on the efficacy of the indictment before you have even read it. having done this for 7 years, i feel like should be -- we should at least do that. so what i will say there are two things. work with alvin bragg, an elected prosecutor, democrat, i wonder whether this is really increasing the public safety of the people in manhattan by going after a seven -- seven-year-olds, charge for hush money

have been ver very clear this is a way to prevent a future miscreant from doing th same thing if richard nixon had bee indicted, there is a possibl -- donald trump's character but possibly he would have bee canceled that he could not get away with things and i also want to point out that we indicted the top peopl in the white house, and campaign march we went to trial in september, we had a verdict on januar 1st. matt - federal system allows for th law. so in new york where i am member of the bar so i kno there are rules, they are goin to be able to push the delay a much because they can't have interi appeals. and so i think this case could be resolved, much more quickly quickly in the line of the watergate case then in what is going on now where it take years to go from indictment to trial. to verdict >> we will have to wait and se on that one. you know, i guess i will wra our conversation up on thi point, andy. you know, donald trump has a new, they have you talking points now and the newest talking point i that this indictment or an arrest, it amounts to election interference but here is a

so a lot of people making the comparison to richard nixon, who had to resign in order to avoid impeachmentmpeachment and removal from office. he was assured he would be convicted by the senate on his own party, the republicans, turned against them. so that's the closest parallel we have. it really is an unprecedented historic day. commentators are making the point that this is usually significant because it shows that the former president, nobody is above the law. how significant is that, and how will it be read, the possible political motivations behind this? i think absolutely, it is obviously a highly political moment, and certainly being politicised by the republicans. i think it has come to answer to really important questions that have been dogging the american political scene since donald trump. 0ne, political scene since donald trump. one, of italy donald trump was unprecedented in being impeached twice. the only president to be impeached twice, but not convicted are not removed from office, so being able to run again for 202a. that gave rise to the question, especially with the in

in this episode, we'll hear from two presidents lyndon johnson and richard nixon. lbj was president of the united states fro1963 to 1969, and during those turbulent years, he often invoked america's better angels in speeches. and he also talked about his vision of a great society. and he went to the statue of liberty to sign an immigration bill. after those, we'll hear from richard nixon, 1969. richar nonalked about the great silent majority. and in 1974, he resigned from office beginning now. here's lyndon johnson. president hatcher. governor romney. senators mcnamara and hart. congressman meader and stabler. and other members of the pine michigan delegation. members of the graduating class. my fellow americans, it is a great pleasure to be here today. this universe today has been coeducational. since 1870, but i do not believe it was on the basis of your accomplishments that a detroit high school girl said, and i quote, in choosing a college, you first have to decide whether you want a coeducational school or an educational school. well, we can find both here at

very briefly, there have been two instances where both richard nixon and bill clinton could have beenicted with no factual disputes. in both stances that was not done by the prosecutors, for good reasons. paul: well, and, of course, former president ford pardoned richard nixon precisely to spare the country from a big dispute, and he did so at some political cost, no question about that. and robert wray did not indict bill clinton even though your argument would be that, actually, it was a pretty clear cut case of perjury and, again, he did so out of national interest grounds, i assume. >> perjury and obstruction of justice. democrats were defending the proposition of course in the context of indictment first, that it did not merit it. yes -- and, by way, as to nixon, you're right as to ford pardoning him, but i happen to think if you look at what the special prosecutor people were talking about even without ford's pardon, i do not think that nixon would have been indicted. paul: okay. so you said this is an exceedingly weak case. what is the biggest weakness here that you see as wray

this is the last statement here that's the kicker, when he says richard nixon got $18 million. and all of a sudden we're seeing the motive trump thought that someone was going to pay him money to return all the classified documents that he took this clip is a great example of why donald trump can never take the witness stand and should never be on television, frankly. i'm sure jack smith is just enjoying that clip no end. it's essentially a confession. trump on the witness stand in the manhattan d.a.'s case would certainly be interesting because the problem donald trump has is he can't resist temptation he always has to go one up, and he has that fatal flaw that you sometimes see in a defendant as a witness where they think that they're the smartest guy in the room and it never plays well for them it's in some ways very painful to see a defendant try to do that so no, he can't be a witness bill barr knows it it's worth pointing out this is the same bill barr who now criticizing his former boss, but when he resigned in december just before the end of the administration, talked a
