Nixon had the decency to resign, Trump will drive us all 6ft under without any hesitation.
Nixon was not decent. The difference was that a Senator (Goldwater) told Nixon point blank that he was getting impeached and the senate had the votes to convict and remove.
Like most government officials “retirement” is getting fired.
I genuinely think he’s by far the most likely president in this country’s history to launch ICBMs if he knows he is fucked. Which was a conclusion myself and any non-moron also came to in 2015.
Name one we have won since WWII?
What else happened to Nixon?
I think this article forgets how Trump effectively surrendered Afghanistan to the Taliban the last time around.
Most people seem to have decided that one is on Biden for some reason, including Biden.
Don’t mention any decency from Biden. It’ll ruin the narrative.
Also, calling Iraq a win is really stretching things.
Also Afghanistan. Also Vietnam.
Unless you consider how beneficial these wars were for the Israel first politicians and lobbies
Winning a battle is easy, winning an occupation is close to impossible.
He’s never been anything but a silver spoon total loser. He’s not even a skilled criminal. Fucking bush league in every measure.
He expected to lose the first election. He wanted to be able to use it as proof that the system was against him, to fire up the Fox News rubes and jumpstart his new TV network. He basically wanted to lose, and instead he won.
It’s amazing. He’s such a failure he failed at failing.
a) This headline forgets W losing Afghanistan
b) Fuck Nixon, but Eisenhower deserves the blame for Vietnam (admittedly one of the reasons he did that was because he thought it would give him political cover to shut McCarthyism down, but still)

I want to learn more about that. Got a recommendation?
