I have yards to say about him, but are best left in the toilet with him.

2nd worst president ever.

mentalfist•6mo ago
The review seems to completely ignore what a gigantic piece of shit he was and presents him as a considerate loving father, feels kinda weird
DonHopkins•6mo ago
Nixon had the exact same attitude Trump has about protecting his good friends Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell:

“I don’t give a shit what happens. I want you all to stonewall it, let them plead the Fifth Amendment, cover up or anything else, if it’ll save it—save this plan. That’s the whole point. We’re going to protect our people if we can.” -Richard Nixon, statement to Haldeman, in tapes ordered released for the trial of Haldeman, Ehrlichman and Mitchell

Exactly the same. "I'm not a crook, but Trump? Oh he is a crook."

#fatnixon

What tricky dick did, with Henry, was clearly genocidal. Amazingly evil and subversive.

Who needs to whitewash this jobby?

I'm looking forward to the Trump version of the final scene of Dick:

What would you expect from a blog with the tagline: Your readership helps this blog, like Richard Nixon, persevere.

Nixon didn't start the Vietnam War but he prolonged it as a candidate sabotaging the peace talks and then as a President expanding it into Laos and Cambodia.

He was a shit, starting a long line of Republican shits.

Yeah, that's a good reason to hit the flag button on this one, even if you're a fan of Nixon. That kind of biased article doesn't, or at least shouldn't, fit in here.

ForOldHack•6mo ago
Well, I was going to write that. He was smart and blind, and knew a lot of people, but like Republicans he was a deceiving sociopathic homicidal jobby.

He gave Elvis a gun.

HE'S TAN, RESTED, AND READY!
