Yes, Nixon was not a warmonger. But apparently he had come to the conclusion during World War II despite his Quaker upbringing that in the face of evil, you can't just stand idly by. I agree with him on that. Didn't always, but I do now, for sure.
They started to impeach Nixon. He however was not impeached.
There were those daily recordings in the oval office revealed by Butterfield. Then John Dean spilled the beans because he figured out he was being set up as the fall guy. Those recordings indicated strongly that Nixon ordered the cover up. The WH was checking daily on how Nixon supporters would vote, and when evidence pointed to probable cause, supporters had to switch sides, and it was an honest reckoning, and thus lose in the House. That's when he resigned, and some believe his reasoning was to save the country.
Clinton threw PNACs crap in the shredder. Got impeached. If anyone thinks it was about his affair they are crazy. That was a cover.
