God, what I wouldn’t give for another Nixon administration. Sure, it was corrupt and built from the ground up to punish the opposing party for being the opposing party. But that administration was limited and restrained by things like competent oversight, a functioning court system that wasn’t constantly undermined by five justices who want to do all of their work on the shadow docket where they’re not obliged to explain their reasoning to the public, and a president who actually knew enough to resign, rather than face impeachment.
