what historical president has the worst defenders on /his/ and why is it Nixon? even his diehard fanboys can't name anything positive he did.
>>18220900>can't name anything positive he didEPA, Clean Air Act, Endangered Species Act, Amtrak, food stamps, desegregation, ending the draft, Paris Peace Accords, ABM Treaty...The worst are Trump supporters, but JFK supporters can be annoying too.
>>18220900He turned China into a trade enemy rather than a military enemy I guess.
>>18220900Implying Tricky Dick didn't W>ended the draft.>founded the EPA and OSHA (brainlet tier not to know this).>opened China with based geopolitics that cucked the Soviets.>desegregated more schools than JFK/LBJ with the Southern Strategy play (gigabrain move to secure the vote then do the opposite).>ended the Vietnam War he inherited (cope and seethe).>wage and price controls to based-pill the economy.>died a statesman while dogwalking every journalist who tried him.His haters are just normies who haven't even read the first paragraph of his wiki. The real ones know he was the last president who actually got shit done before the admin state went full rogue.
>>18220985>The worst are Trump supporters, but>historical presidentsCan you even read at all?
>>18220900His diehard defenders can easily name a billion things he did, it's only a question of whether you personally attribute those things to him (like with much of his environmental policy) and whether you think that outweighs the obviously bad shit. I'd personally say FDR, just because his dickriders outright ignore the blatantly corrupt/anti-democratic shit and the poor decisions his admin made. I hope that alot of progressives who champion democratic norms right now do go back and reanalyze FDR.
>>18220992>founded the EPA and OSHA (brainlet tier not to know this).That is not a positive accomplishment.
>>18220900Grantfags piss me off
>>18221091Do Grantfags even defend his presidency? It's his military record that gets praised. Actually I do suppose the fans of a more hardcore reconstruction like Grant too.
>>18221050>they/them like rivers being on fire>against safe working conditions as well???
>>18221050my grandfather worked in a steel mill when they started OSHA and everyone fucking hated those inspectors
>>18221144Regulation killing economic growth and cryptocommunt.
>>18220985>>18220992Now explain why any of that shit was actually good
>>18221154jobs exist to build communities, not capital.
>Mr. Noseberg (job creator) just wants me to do the simple job of picking out the bone fragments jamming his giant meat thresher with my bare hands but GOD DAMN OSHA won't let us just get the job done!
>>18221154/thread
>>18220992Cuntrarians will find reasons to diss all these, but what's notable is that most of these are real accomplishments that would be particularly admired by the traditional Nixon-hating bloc (gay Chinese leftos/Democrats)
