Thing is, El Taco is the result of a 50 year campaign to ensure that Watergate can never happen again. Which would not have even been an issue if Tricky Dick hadn't become President by deliberately pandering to all the neo-Confederates who were butthurt that LBJ dared acknowledge that black people were actually human beings. So, y'know, he can still fuck right off.
