Hello!
The Watergate Scandal caused many citizens to lost trust in the government. President Nixon was involved in what is now known as the Watergate Scandal. It has been proven that the president had previous knowledge of a burglary that occurred in the Watergate building. After this, hundreds of citizens began questioning the government. This greatly affected the country because no citizen had thought that a president would break the law in such a way.
I hope this helps you!
