Sam Ervin during the Watergate hearings:

11. Don't forget this difference

nixon and his henchmen were crooks, but they did eventually bow to the rule of law. We shouldn't think that just because there was an ounce of decency left among nixon's crew, enough for them to finally put their country ahead of themselves, that there is any decency among trump and his henchmen. They have who knows what kind of deals and 'understandings'with putin, arab countries, netanyahu, kim and other dictators and they aren't going to do what nixon did. In general, they don't read the law. Iftheir lawyers read the law, it is only to see if they can twist even clear language to their benefit.

In my opinion, I think we should seize all of them, put them in jail, and release them only if we can find a justification for letting them back among humans.
