NPR Talks Up Trump as Watergate II, But Gets Misty About....Saddam Hussein?

This sounds like a bad joke. While NPR is offering stories on how President Trump is corrupt enough for impeachment like Nixon the Sequel, they make time for stories about how American soldiers got PTSD because they formed a complex human bond with the prisoner they guarded before his hanging....Saddam Hussein. This actually happened.
On Tuesday's Morning Edition, NPR host Rachel Martin began a story on White House counsel Don McGahn like this: "Fairly or unfairly, the specter of the Watergate scandal increasingly hangs over the Trump administration. The parallels have been spurred by a drumbeat of events, among them the firing of the FBI director, the apparent attempt to enlist top intelligence officials to quash the Russia investigation and even the suggestion of taping in the White House."
