A 1970 photo opportunity, as they were called then. One would resign in 1974 to avoid certain impeachment, the other would resign on a toilet in 1977.

I assume you’re a man of so much work there is no time left for play, so I will fill in the reference. There is a Coen Brothers film called No Country For Old Men based on a novel of the same title, written by Cormac McCarthy. It was a frightening fictional world, which you are in the process of preventing from becoming a reality. Thank you again.
