That's not the problem. The US now effectively has a system where you don't prosecute presidents for any crime. You should note that the ongoing criminal investigations against Trump were mostly cancelled when it became obvious that he'll be the next president.

If this system had been in place when Nixon did his crimes, he would've just shrugged and kept going.

You are indeed not Europe now, not even close. Well, except for Hungary and Belarus.
