Never cared for Nixon. I really liked Ford. With that said, Vietnam may have been quite different if Nixon had remained in office. In today’s climate, folks can’t discern between likable and capable when choosing leadership.

I like him

While in the Navy in WWII he won $6K playing poker. His best hand was, I kid you not, a Royal Flush in diamonds (RFs are much rarer in Draw than in Hold 'em)

do dislike Nixon for opening up trade with China. That had dire consequences that destroyed manufacturing here and built a communist behemoth


And he was the final nail in the gold standard’s coffin

I'd like to think he got played by the central banking cartel to assist in their plan to go full Monopoly money and then was thrown to the wolves.

Nixon was the man. He got a bad rap because of the high gas prices because of Iran.

He won in '72 by a landslide, and won every state. He spoke the truth about the gays. He would be stunned at what we see on television today!!!
