Trump is also different from Nixon...
1. Nixon was US Navy Reserve officer during WW2 and got mobilized to serve. Trump got military deferment from "bone spurs" during Vietnam War
2. Nixon had political experience prior to Presidency. Trump has never served in public office.
3. Nixon grew up in poverty in strict religious Quaker home. Trump grew up in wealth and was an alleged misfit at his military high school
4. Nixon was staunch anti-Communist and did not face concerns about integrity when visiting China. Trump has wavering political beliefs and Mueller investigation includes business ties with Russian government.
5. Nixon was faithful to his wife, Pat, throughout life. Trump has had three marriages and has faced hush money concerns about previous adulterous affairs.
6. Nixon was first President to release tax returns, Trump is first to voluntarily refuse to release
