this is one of those moments, as an watergate where you know, you know as you hold the washington post in your hands that you are reading history, basically in realtime. >> you so right, lawrence, and the way we americans are living in a different world than the one we were living in just 24 hours ago, because here we are for almost the first time in american history, with the immediate prospect of an ex president of the united states having done things that were so bad, that the department of justice is now reliably reported to be exploring the possibility, of not only investigating him, but indicting him. in which case you would go to trial. and if he loses, we may in our lifetime seat of the spectacle of an ex president of the united states with the prison cell door closing it it's
