John Dean, Aunt Maxine, and the Queen of Mean go after President Trump

"[Dean] frequently appears on CNN as a paid contributor, in which he's usually criticizing Trump."

'The Return of Dean,' or another sign that they got nothing on Trump  "How desperate are the Democrats?  
"First, Speaker Nancy Pelosi allegedly said that she wants to send President Trump to prison.  On what grounds?  We don't know, but that's not the point.  Speaker Pelosi has to keep putting anti-Trump nuggets on the table so that the beast doesn't devour her.
"Second, they've brought back a real oldie, John Dean of Watergate fame.  He is apparently going to tell the Democrats how to impeach President Trump, or something like that.  
"This is from NPR: " . . .

The Real Lesson of Watergate Ignored in John Dean's Testimony and Media Commentary  "With the return of John Dean to the witness’s chair in a congressional hearing room yesterday, false analogies between that incident and the current day Russia Hoax are everywhere in the mainstream media. But the one real lesson of that era is still valid today: Don’t trust the government’s Administrative State bureaucracy -- and in particular prosecutors, who are, too often, henchmen using their power and resources unethically, carelessly and ruthlessly.  Too often they do not deliver justice; they hunt and destroy and cheat when necessary.  (See here, here and here.)" . . .
Republicans assail Dean’s record: 'How many presidents have you accused of being Richard Nixon?' . . . “ 'Mr. Dean has made a cottage industry out of accusing presidents of acting like Richard Nixon,” Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., said.
"Dean, the ex-White House counsel in President Richard Nixon's administration, was convicted of obstruction of justice after striking a deal to cooperate with the Watergate investigation. He has spent decades critical of the GOP and wrote a book in 2004 accusing President George H.W. Bush of acts “worse than Watergate.' ” . . .
