Nixon was barking mad. He once sent the White House chief of staff to the Department of Employment to count the number of Jews who worked there because he thought they were making the unemployment numbers look worse than they actually were as part of a wider Jewish conspiracy to destroy his presidency. Henry Kissinger has to stop him dropping nuclear bombs on North Vietnam and bombing a dam that would have killed millions of Vietnamese civilians. Kissinger and the various defence secretaries had standing orders with the guys at the Pentagon who controlled US nuclear weapons that if Nixon rang them up in the middle of the night ordering them to nuke somebody they had to get authorisation from Kissinger/defence secretary first.
Could America elect a worse president than Nixon in future? You betcha!
