Reason: Corrected 1968 to 1972

1980 incident appeared to follow a very similar “blueprint” as the CIA-concocted 1972 Watergate scandal used to force Nixon out in a “soft coup”. Apparently, they were going to try the same thing on Reagan, but went for JFK-style takeout after this failed.


Watergate “scandal” was likely Nixon going after blackmail/compromise evidence stored at Watergate Hotel where CIA was running their honeypot operation on DC politicians.



CORRECTION: 1972, not 1968
