If memory serves Clinton didn’t get that low when he was caught with an intern on her knees under his desk - does anyone remember what Nixon was at the day he quit?

The bunker admits that our prediction regarding the Bush legacy was wrong, we were sure it would be comprised of failed foreign policy, re legalizing torture, and the Iraq war — it turns out we may be wrong….. with a whole 8 months (or so) until the next election the only question that remains now is how low can he go?
