55% : But Trump was able to bring enough of the party, and the American people, alongside to win the election that November.
36% : Trump faces the same countermeasures to his own second term.
36% : Whether Trump goes the way of Nixon or follows through on the 37th president's vision will be decided November 5.
34% : At the very least, Harris is a candidate more controllable than Trump that is capable of beating him -- of course, with the right controls placed on the people before the election.
33% : Progressive district attorneys, special prosecutors, and attorneys general have spent the last four years attempting to keep Trump in court rather than on the campaign trail.
28% : Trump and Nixon needed more.
23% : Their share of the popular vote was unimpressive, though Trump lost the popular vote while Nixon won it by half a point.
16% : "Trump Can't Just Erase History Like Nixon Did," one writer groaned for The Atlantic.
14% : Small government conservatives, the Ron Paul or Ted Cruz types, simply did not take Trump at his word.
12% : "Trump is no Nixon -- He's Much Worse," read one headline from The Hill in September 2023.
10% : Upon entering the White House, Trump had his host of personnel problems -- John Bolton, H.R. McMaster, and Alyssa Farah Griffin among them.
9% : If Trump does prevail where Nixon could not, maybe he'll be able to find out who shanked Joe.
