It took only 18 minutes of missing tape to impeach and remove President Nixon from office.
Compare these 18 minutes of missing audio tapes to Hillary Clinton’s 30,000+ missing emails, thousands of controversial leaked campaign emails, a litany of rape accusations aimed at Bill Clinton, numerous recently released Project Veritas videos that seem to prove that Democrats have incited violence at Trump rallies and committed voter fraud across the country and the reported scandals supposedly riddled throughout the Clinton Foundation.

Election time is just around the corner, and with many considering this election to be the downfall of America, it doesn’t seem like too long ago when people swore that the fibers holding this country together would deteriorate under the leadership of our first Black president, Barack Obama.
While not all of his measures reached the desired effect many were hoping for, his policies — especially in social medicine — took a critical step in the right direction. With this in mind, it’s important for us to note what leadership will be best for the nation. Which leader will fill the vacant Supreme Court seat with the most level-headed judge? Which leader will improve foreign relations and create a viable working world? Which leader will spread tolerance and understanding, not fear and hate?
