Here’s another view of how it was public opinion that forced Nixon’s resignation. Not shame. Power, drawn from the public.
I marked up this chart a few yrs ago to show how Nixon’s approval fell during Senate Watergate hearings (hello, Congress, shadow hearings now). Note the numbers on the right!

Source: Gallup polls, January 1973 to August 1974 Note: Question on Nixon's removal from office June 1973 to February 1974 was, "Do you think President Nixon should be impeached and compelled to leave the Presidency, or not?" and from April 1974 to August 1974 was, following an explanation of the impeachment process and a question on wrongdoing, "Do you think [Nixon's] actions are serious enough to
warrant his being removed from the Presidency, or not?"

And let’s talk about how dangerous it is to spread conspiracy theories about COVID and vaccines in general.
When you tell disturbed people the CDC is responsible for killing folks as part of some evil plot against the US, you’ll have blood on your hands when they respond in kind.

3/ Debating the efficacy of the Trump tariffs is like walking up to two ortho surgeons discussing alternative treatments for a closed leg fracture in a kid and asking "would it be just as good to amputate and hope it regenerates like a starfish?"
Yes, it's that damned stupid.
Yes, it's that damned stupid.
