Hey, I would point out that, for all of his paranoia and other faults, Nixon showed some basic human decency toward the end as he resigned. If only he had shown more as President, of course.
Sorry, are we saying it was decent of Nixon to escape accountability for his crimes?
No, that he did the right thing and quit. Should he have stayed and forced the country to go through with the impeachment instead? Now, you can certainly argue that he should have faced criminal charges, but that option was removed by Gerald Ford. You could make a good case that was wrong, but Ford paid for it by losing (frankly, he deserved to lose, anyway).
