During Saturday's edition of AM Joy, host Joy Reid opened her show with video footage from a 1972 edition of NBC Nightly News announcing that the Democratic National Committee had filed a lawsuit against the Committee for the Re-Election of the President and five men who had broken into the Democratic National Committee's Headquarters at the Watergate Complex. Throughout the first fifteen minutes of the show, Reid and her guests did their best to draw parallels between the scandal that brought down President Richard Nixon and the Trump-Russia probe that the left hopes will ultimately derail the Trump Presidency.
