When Nixon and Clinton were investigated

Legal scholar Ken Gormley discusses with Anu Anand two scandals that engulfed the White House - Watergate, which led to President Nixon's resignation in 1974, and the impeachment of President Clinton in 1998. Do those episodes shed any light on what to expect from the investigation by former FBI director Robert Mueller into the Trump campaign and Russia?
