Answer:

B) He resigned from the presidency rather than face forced removal from office.

Step-by-step explanation:

In March 1974, the federal grand jury considered the co-chairman, without formal charges, in a conspiracy to obstruct the action of justice in the investigation of the Watergate scandal. On the afternoon of August 8, Nixon announced his resignation. On August 9, Gerald Ford was sworn in.
