Trivia: The Supreme Court ruled against what President in 1974?
Bill Clinton
Gerald Ford
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Richard Nixon
The correct answer is Richard Nixon
So why is this answer correct? : On July 24, 1974, the U.S. Supreme Court dealt a fatal blow to the presidency of Richard Nixon amid the Watergate Scandal. “United States v. Nixon” saw the President attempting to claim that his executive privilege allowed him to withhold access to incriminating audio tapes in the face of a government subpoena. In its decision, the unanimous court held that the tapes had to be released and that no one, not even the President, is above the law.
