Nixon Was Paranoid AF | Louis Ck & Shane Gillis MSSP

Nixon’s 1968 victory is discussed, where he appealed to the “silent majority.” The hosts compare today’s press with that of Nixon’s era, citing Walter Cronkite as a model of straightforward journalism. They touch on the Vietnam War and the protests against it, including a surreal moment when Nixon stepped out of his limo to speak with demonstrators at the Lincoln Memorial. The Watergate scandal is explained as starting with a small burglary but spiraling due to Nixon’s paranoia and cover-ups — including a taped conversation about paying off a burglar. The speakers recall watching Nixon’s resignation and its impact on the public, concluding with his later interviews with David Frost and his behind-the-scenes role advising future presidents.
