Congress never actually voted to impeach Nixon because he resigned before the process could play out. Given what you have learned about his behavior, do you think he deserved to be removed from office? Why or why not?

Answer:

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Nixon had to release the Oval Office tapes to government investigators. ... The House Judiciary Committee then approved articles of impeachment against Nixon for obstruction of justice, abuse of power, and contempt of Congress.

To my knowledge if he had a reason to resign at that time, he knew he was guilt and he would get what was coming to him...
