Though the public only first caught wind of this scandal after the June 17th, 1972 Watergate break-in, the controversy was years in the making. Groups close to the White House used illegal means to assure their president, Richard Nixon, would get elected to a second term. And the Watergate burglary was a chance to spy on the Democratic Party. It wasn’t long before a trail led straight to key people in the Republican Party, and the cover-up began. Intrepid reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, with help from their anonymous source Deep Throat, helped unravel the mess, and eventually the Watergate Scandal forced the first and only resignation of a U.S. president. In this video, learns more about the Watergate Scandal.

The Trump Administration is more corrupt than this Watergate scandal! Impeach & imprison Trump!
Trump's presidency is very similar to Nixon's so far. Hopefully, Trump's has a similar ending.
The only mistake he made,that He was trying to defend his men.Yom Kippur war  started in 1973 late October ,early November.A multitude of Arab States attacked Israel.Israel were asking help from USA,munitions,weapons,planes,etc.Nixon said the senate has to approve it.Israel responded,by that time ,we all could be killed.President could approve it.That was he's downfall.
What's the funniest thing of all? Republicans outrage with Trump not investigating Hillary when their own president Nixon was pardoned for far worse.
When they connect Trump to Putin and Russia's wiki leaks from the DNC I'll be laughing and saying Called It!
This makes me hungry for Watergate Salad…
sounds like trump case
Daddy Seinfeld !
Tricky Dick!
Too bad the water gate masked a lot of Nixon's positive achievements towards America. You know what they say, help 1 million people live and kill one man, they will always remember you as a killer.
"Deep throat" little did they know what that would mean in the futura.
What was on those 18 1/2 minutes dammit!!
That moment when WatchMojo helps you pass a history test

Trump is next…
Here because of Trump
Now we have Trump. A clueless moron!
Michael Flynn… we're counting on you
Who the hell is Richard Nixon?
I literally think that history is repeating it's self with Trump and Nixon. Trump is going to go out like this Russia is seriously his Watergate. The fact that years and decades later the American people are still going through this crap is ridiculous. I know this is gonna cause hate but Obama has probably been the most incorruptible president. Trump is rotten to the core, he knew what he was doing when he started the birther issue.
Trump is next
Just checked in to see the parallels between Nixon and Trump both firing the FBI directors.
Here 'cause Trump…
What a time in american history, out constitutions held.
History is repeating itself, isnt it?
This won't ever happen again white Americans are smart.
Trumpgate coming!

how interesting. republicans started the bs trickles down economy, llegal corruption , removing people's votes and scandal in our government.
it's not what he did that ultimately landes him in hot water …. what made it all go bad was that it was covered up at his insistence … this ultimately blew it into a bigger scandal than it actually started as.
