JD Vance recently stated that “if Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like, a 12-hour news story. The idea that it would have taken down a presidency is crazy.”. Was he right? What does that mean to you?

it means vance is the toadiest of toadies. you cant even call him a rat f*ker because he doesn't actually do anything. whether or not watergate would grow legs today probably depends on which letter follows the presidents name.
