(This is Nixon’s final Cabinet meeting.) After the meeting Barry Goldwater tells Haig that Nixon will only receive a little over a dozen votes in his favor from the Senate. Then Goldwater tells Ford the President should resign immediately. Later, Goldwater speaks with Haig reiterates that the President will lose, adding that Nixon has lied to him for the last time.
