together, all at once in a big felonious mess because the american people in our infinite wisdom thought it would be a good idea to elect guys that crime-y to the white house twice, thanks to that mess around nixon and agnew, the justice department in the early 70s had bumbled their way into putting down on paper that it was the policy of the justice department to not ever bring criminal charges against a sitting president of the unite and that s like an important landmark moment fort nixon years, it s never a good sign that your presidency is so crime-y and forces a look at the rules whether you can a be president from in a prison cell. even i though that landmark was reached in theen nixon years, a they clarified mess on paper because of m nixon and agnew, t rule, the nuts and bolts of it never got tested at that time, never got tested by the events that surrounded the eventual downfall of nixon and agney, nixon resigned as president before beinged forced out and never cri
