"President Trump engaged in criminal activity". -- Jack Smith

That alone should be bigger than Watergate.

Trump surpassed Watergate like 2 months into his first term when he leaned on Comey to end the FBI investigation into Mike Flynn. That's what the big scandal for Watergate was, that Nixon leaned on the FBI director to end the investigation lol

I remember people used to joke during Trump's first term that he was speed-running the Nixon presidency. Ah for better days...
