Obviously more responses are always worthwhile, but while you’re waiting here are some similar (but not the exact same!) questions asked and answered here on askhistorians:

Did Richard Nixon have apologists in the press throughout the Watergate scandal? If so, did those journalist lose credibility after Nixon resigned? Answered by /u/The_Alaskan.

Were there hardcore, dogged Nixon supporters who denied that he was involved in Watergate even after he resigned? Answered by /u/TheHuscal.

How did the Republicans who supported Nixon throughout Watergate avoid being plagued by the scandal after his impeachment? By, you guessed it, Frank Stallone. I mean /u/The_Alaskan, who may or may not be Frank Stallone.
