Q said watch the water. I’ve wondered since if that was a reference to the Watergate. The prop was renovated in 2009 or so.

Are powerful people and orgs still using that complex of bldg’s?

The “mainstream” reason for Nixon being so maligned is because, “he brought shame to the office of POTUS and the nation as a whole.”

Then of course the D’s used it to say all R’s are crooks. It’s the only way Carter won as the outsider - Mr Clean - born again Christian in ‘76.

What’s crazy is Nixon was completely done/washed up in politics after JFK won.

(It since has been proven that JFK did not win and pulled some shenanigans to hide R votes for a short time - Nixon decided not to challenge the vote because of the optics had he been wrong and still lost - if he had challenged - he would have won in ‘60).

Nixon came back from political obscurity to win his first term as POTUS. He was quite the politician.
