The main consequence of the Watergate scandal was political instability. That's because the Watergate scandal was compounded by the disclosure of an illegal eavesdropping system that President Nixon and people linked to him installed at the seat of the Democratic government. This created a great political instability that affected the entire government and culminated in the resignation of President Nixon.
The Watergate scandal also created a popular uprising, followed by several protests. This popular uprising was also one of the consequences of the Vietnam War. This happened because the population saw the war as something cruel, without reason and that it was created only to promote terror and a huge expenditure of money that could be used to promote good.
Both the Vietnam War and the Watergate scandal created a devaluation of national public power. Both the government and the armed forces lost popularity and strength in the country and were seen as flawed and dishonorable institutions.
