Answer:
Nixon
Explanation:
Political scandal (1972-1975) that surrounded the revelation of illegal activities by the republican administration President Richard Nixon during the electoral campaign of 1972.
The scandal was born with the arrest in June 1972 of five men who had entered to spy on the Democratic National Committee at the Watergate Hotel in Washington. After many judicial vicissitudes, the involvement of the Nixon administration became increasingly evident. On April 30, 1973, Nixon partially accepted the responsibility of the government and dismissed several officials involved.
The existence of incriminating tapes of the president and his refusal to put them at the disposal of justice led to a hard confrontation between the executive and the judicial. Public opinion finally forced the delivery of these tapes, but one was altered and two disappeared.
Growing evidence about the guilt of Nixon and senior US officials led to the initiation of proceedings of the "impeachement", trial of the president. In August 1974 Nixon had to deliver transcripts of three tapes that clearly implicated him in covering up the scandal. The evidence caused Nixon to lose his last support in Congress. On August 8, he announced his resignation from the position of president when he verified that he had lost the "political base" necessary to govern. His vice president, Gerald Ford, agreed to the presidency and immediately granted an unconditional pardon to Nixon on September 8, 1974.
