Just got to my hotel. I see Trump boomers all over the place. In the restaurants, in the hotel, in the lobby, in the CVS, on the road, at the gas station, at the bar, in the mall, on the street. Everywhere!

we've been lied to our entire existence
Nixon did nothing wrong. He was taken out buy the DS. Look what he was replaced with. There are books and documentaries about what actually happened. I heard his resignation speech live as I was walking home from seeing Blazing Saddles in the theater, too young to get in but with family so I was let slide. Even I knew there was fuckery afoot, and I was totally apolitical.
You won’t have Dick Nixon to kick around any more.
The more I read the more I like him.
Nixon wasn't hilter, but he and Kissinger did open relations with Chy-na, soooo....
The sad thing is that we very nearly had the fall of the CCP, but after Tiananmen Square, instead of the West uniting against the slaughter, we did nothing.
Yes. He was a great President actually.
Agreed.
Very capable, understood power and how to use it. Will never understand his not contesting the 1960 election which was clearly stolen; he did it "for the good of the country". He was right and wrong at the same time. While a very competent President and pretty conservative, he established the EPA and instituted wage and price controls. I remember thinking, WTF?!? I wasn't happy with the opening with China, but Nixon was no fool like the Presidents following Reagan up until GEOTUS. He knew that peeling Red China away from the slime sucking Siberian snow pimps would complicate the hell out of the Russkie's lives, and he never conceded a damn thing to them, so on balance it was a brilliant move. His successors with the exception of Reagan and GEOTUS were the ones who fucked it all up.
The EPA had a real reason to exist at the time of its creation, and did a lot to make America a cleaner place. Non flammable rivers and air you can't see are good things.
It just should have been disbanded sometime in the mid 80's.
Something needed to be done, that's for sure. I remember when Lake Erie caught fire. Once a government entity is established, it never goes away. Instead of the several years of EPA getting organized before they started actually doing anything, it would have been better to have the Dept. of the Interior survey needs then provide funding to the States for the sole purpose of cleaning up the messes.
Now now were still bien lied to
