He named them
>>219088314He might be articulate but he was still a bumbling fool who created his own mini-CIA in the White House filled with retards who didn't know what the hell they were doing. He also had no convictions to speak of, he just went where the wind was blowing and wanted to be remembered as a good president, but without any moral compass or actually caring about what impact his decisions and policies had on the USA beyond increasing his popularity. He was a cynical, morally bankrupt individual.
>>219088391But enough about LBJ
>>219088441It also fits LBJ, yes. They had a lot in common
>>219088314Boomers have to make Nixon out to be an idiot/monster to excuse the fact that THE most popular president of the 20th century was removed from office because commies took over the levers of power in America
>>219088314And then republicans never recovered from Watergate.
>put a lil' mic inside your political rival's HQ>you are worse than Hitler nowBitch, the CIA is currently listening to me farting in the shitter and no one gives a fuck
>>219088758Maybe the dumbass shouldn't have gotten caught then, or maybe just don't operate clandestine operations out of the white house, that's pretty fucking stupid.
>>219088514Was this Russiagate 1.0? Could they have pulled this off had they done it in the internet era of near instant news?
Nixon was openly corrupt during a time when this was still frowned upon. Nowadays nobody would give a shit
>>219088391wow he sounds like a real american patriot
>>219088391>wanted to be remembered as a good president, but without any moral compass or actually caring about what impact his decisions and policies had on the USA beyond increasing his popularity.Holy fucking based, maybe these other shitbird presidents should take note
>>219088314Nixon was based. People only hate him because reddit thinks it's cool.
>>219088314>IRL famous people that are just never portrayed accurately in movies/tv for whatever reason?paris hilton
>>219088391Nixon's domestic transgressions look minor in retrospect. He wound down the war in Vietnam and bombed the shit out of the North to bring them to the peace table. Also did a geopolitical 360* noscope with the Chinese to put pressure on the USSR and North Vietnam. Very astute operator.If Watergate hadn't have destroyed his Presidency, Vietnam probably would still be divided to this day and it'd be Korea 2.0 and we'd be all talking about V-Pop.All the presidents prior to him did far more fucked up shit but because they were media darlings they got away with it.
It is funny looking at the bad things presidents did in the past that ruined their reputation and compare it to all the shit Trump has done, it all looks so minor in comparison. That's the power of social media propaganda I guess.
>>219088314oliver stone's film had suprisingly deep portrayal of nixon, it wasn't positive, but he wasn't just a bumbling retard, rather shakespearian character that was on the verge of the greatness, but his tragic flaws alongside with american deep state portrayed as an unironic incomprehensible lovecraftian beast led to his fallalso it's kinda funny that 2/3 of pictures on the left are just matt groening shows
>>219089620>also it's kinda funny that 2/3 of pictures on the left are just matt groening showsThe guy in the Epstein files?
>>219089114Not even nixon's own team like himOnly some tards on 4chan like him because they're braindead
>>219089656>The guy in the Epstein files?
>>219089698Cool damage control there, MATT DEFENCE FORCE
>>219089234South Korea is a hellhole that's ruled by a femenist cult and is degenerating rapidly, they're all paranoid about the North taking over them, and for a good reason. They're weak and cucked, North could wipe the floor with them and America doesn't give a shit about it's allies anymore. Vietnam is better off united, it's a thirdie shithole but it didn't become like North Korea where because of being in constant danger they had to become a closed off authoritian state. Literally to survive as an independent entity.
>>219088514Republicans dominated from Reagan to early Bush.
>>219089114Nixon was based af. Got the US out of Nam. Had Americans land on the moon. Pretty much ended the cold war and open relations with China. People forget that the only job of a politician is to benefit their own people, race and nation and it doesn't actually matter if they're a cheating, corrupt lying bastard or not. It was bleeding heart libtards like JFK and LBJ that really fucked over White America.
>>219089234>He wound down the war in Vietnam and bombed the shit out of the North to bring them to the peace table.He sabotaged peace talks to get himself elected, then escalated the war and expanded it to Cambodia
>>219089945Yeah the North could bomb SK enough so they could go from 26 million starving yellowskins to 75 millions starving yellowskins. Another great victory for russian-aligned bolshevism.
>>219089114Nixon was a fag. Only contrarian 4channers think he's le heckin based and redpilled-erino
>>219088314The only president known to aliens.
>>219088391He made war with kikes and lost, it's not complicated
>>219090413You are isolated and alone with this eccentric view
It's a cartoonHe had a weird noseThat's all it takes
>>219088314I heard people who met him agreed he had "street smarts" in politics. His nickname was "tricky Dick" for a reason.
>>219088314It’s satire, dipshit. We used to be able to lampoon presidents because they weren’t always actual bumbling fucking retards. Unfortunately these days they’re actually like cartoons.
>>219088391the EPA is the reason you don't have 1 ball and cancer in your organs
>>219091288Then why aren't LBJ or Gerald Ford treated the same way?
>>219088314William Howard Taft is widely regarded as the greatness president.
>>219091340GF was popularly known as an ineffective dullard, and was portrayed exactly such on The Simps--perhaps sympathetically so, since he posed no threat of being elected and was thus perceived as harmless. Because of the nature of the Watergate hoax, Nixon, like it or not, has been a household name since, much the same as Lincoln or JFK. LBJ was the guy who signed the Civil Right Act; NO ONE in media or entertainment is ever going to portray him in denigratory fashion. I'm amazed that he's not elevated the way JFK is in modern /tv/.
>>219088391>He was an evil racist, sexist, homophobic anti-drug zeralot!>He also had no convictions to speak of, he just went where the wind was blowingI really wish the revisionists would at least get their story straight. I know asking you to not lie is a bridge WAY too far, but is it too much to ask that you make sure your lies at least don't contradict EACHOTHER?...
>>219089698>random unsourced pieces of textRiveting.Why are you so obsessed with woke-ideology advocate, trans-rights supporter, terminal TDS-sufferer and DNC Super-Donor Jeffery Epstein anyway?
>>219093078
>>219088502What a terrible analysis. Nixon and the rest of the US government was couped by the other forces in the executive branch, partly due to Nixon's leniency towards china.
>>219088314Matt Groening had a personal hatred of Richard Nixon.
>>219089234The only reason the Vietnam war “wound down” was because a cia analyst leaked a beyond top secret seven thousand page analysis of how the war was an utter failure from the start, that began during the Eisenhower administration, that firmly establish that Nixon was ramping it up to no effect. Watergate was practically a staged operation to distract from the pentagon papers and how Nixon basically sought to redact the first amendment to save his ego. Revisionists say it’s unfair to portray Nixon as an incompetent bully, but the reality is they’re being soft on him.
>>219088322Fpbp
>>219094756>Eisenhowerexcuse me, us interests in Vietnam started during the Truman admiration. That’s what’s worth noting. Yeah no shit the “war” war started under Eisenhower.
>>219094937>tap out administration>an entire sentence later autocorrect decides I meant to say admirationThis has to be by design to undermine internet discourse.
>>219088314The CIA is very influential
>>219088314jews hate nixon
>>219088322Kissinger is the biggest Jew to ever exist.
>>219089062Your nose is showing, Moshe.
>>219090413They will praise Netanyahu the moment it becomes unambiguously popular to shit on him. The contrarianism shows no bounds.
>>219092956>He was an evil racist, sexist, homophobic anti-drug zeralot!I never said that schizo, nice strawman though
>>219095508Nobody white hates Israel. It’s literally only America first mutts, Indians larping as neos, and muzzies who seethe at Israel.
>>219091118Oh no! I'm not a part of a mindless echo chamber? What a travesty!!!>>219095572Nice try. Plus Indians love Israel. Your poltroon programming needs an update.
>>219088314>Extremely intelligent/even handed in his retrospective analysis of geopolitics and is incredibly humble/praises the democratic presidents that came before and after his precedencythis used to be a normal thing for presidents actually
>>219095508contrarianism isn’t real. people have just forgotten how big a piece of shit Nixon was due to their being bigger pieces of shit being, openly being pieces of shit, celebrated for being pieces of shit. Nixon was caught red handed being a massive piece of shit at a time when America could still possibly be seen as not being a pile of shit. The scandals of the past benefit greatly from being compared to the open reality of post-9/11, post occupy America.
>>219096626True. I call this the prequel syndrome. Wherein the soi wars sequels were so shit prequels are now considered as mastahpieces
>>219088314Doesn't matter, both sides work towards the same goals for the same final bosses. Media punditry is full of bs theater, unless they totally reject "angel investors protecting demoocrazy".
>>219095553Not him but I accept your concession
>>219095572yikes
>>219096576you got a skewed view about past presidents because we didnt hear from them 24/7 and see their tweets on the shitter at 3AMthe echnology available at that time didnt allow us to look into their hearts every day, we had a very sanitized and mediaproof picture of them. nowadays they stand naked in front of us, which is both good and bad
>>219096847No one reevaluated the prequels. The children who grew up on them are just the majority of people left talking about them.
>>219097340It was more a reference to this line>people have just forgotten how big a piece of shit Nixon was due to their being bigger pieces of shit being, openly being pieces of shit, celebrated for beinPeople have forgotten how bad the PT was because the ST was an even bigger pile of shit
>>219088314Watching media, you also get the impression of him being hunched over and short. Dude was 6'0"
>>219097467Still wrong.
>>219097626It’s because he always tried to “loom,” which just looks hunched over when you’re on a 20 inch screen.
The popular recollection of Watergate was wrong. It was going to be a Trump-style impeachment where the Dems rammed it through only to have it fail in the Senate because Republicans could stop it there and most people didn't really give a shit about the scandal or the cover-up enough to where the Republicans would feel any pain for acquitting him.It was only when the tapes were released and you got to hear Nixon talk mad shit about everyone and everything, Watergate related or not, that he finally lost all support. Naturally the WH recording system was done away with immediately after.
>>219097913not everyone had the natural looming skills of Lyndon Johnson
>>219094210Cope you commie fuckAlger Hiss was a piece of shit.
>>219097929>POTUS talking shit about people was considered a major scandal in the 70s>now the pedo-in-chief openly has flame wars on twitter and insults peopleWhat a time to be alive!
>>219098123>le pedo-in-chief>b-b-b-b-b-but he's in le Epstein FIIILES!Cool. Most allegations were from 2024 and not credible.
Nixon was the last great American. EVery president after him truly sucks ass
>>219098277>files released by Trumps own administration mentioned his name several times>um ackshully sweatie, drumpf dindu nuffin. He was le heckin angle>posts some random twitter accountBlumpftards really are an amusing bunch
>>219088391sounds a lot like drumpfth
>>219088314>“Undoubtedly the most unattractive women in the world are the Indian women,” said Mr. Nixon. “Undoubtedly,” he repeated, with a venomous tone.>He continued, “The most sexless... nothing, these people. I mean, people say, what about the Black Africans? Well, you can see something, the vitality there, I mean they have a little animal-like charm, but God, those Indians, ack, pathetic. Uch.”>Mr. Nixon said: “To me, they turn me off. How the hell do they turn other people on, Henry? Tell me.” Mr. Kissinger’s response is inaudible, but it did not discourage the president from his theme.>The president, in between bitter sparring matches with Mrs. Gandhi about the danger of war with Pakistan, suggested to Mr. Kissinger that his own sexual neuroses were having an impact on foreign policy: “They [Indians] turn me off. They are repulsive and it’s just easy to be tough with them.”>A few days later, on Nov. 12, 1971, in the middle of a discussion about India-Pakistan tensions with Mr. Kissinger and Secretary of State William P. Rogers, after Mr. Rogers mentioned reprimanding Mrs. Gandhi, the president blurted, “I don’t know how they reproduce!”
>>219088322He literally got us off the gold standard you fucking retard
>>219097981Johnson always sat/stood straight on camera and in public appearances. Trying to “loom” over a camera or crowd just makes you look smaller.
>>219098277Imagine fucking defending trump when he's literally sacrificing the country for Israel as we speak.
>>219088391Nailed it.
>>219098585Your histrionics aren’t working Abdul, you can stop now
>>219098555The gold standard was keeping the economy from bloating into the rats nest of “creative accounting” (read: fraud) it is today.
>>219090118The war was fought with special forces in Cambodia since the mid 60s
>>219098689Kill yourselfGo for for jews then
>>219098689Shalom amerimutt
>>219088820He wasn't more corrupt than any other president. The external and internal forces aligned against him just caused certain things to become public.
>>219099160How is he not more corrupt than Jimmy Carter?
>>219099258What part of the constitution did jimmy try to repeal because the press was embarrassing him?
>>219088314>sabotages peace talks with the vietcong and prolongs the war, so he can win the presidency>nothin personnel, commie
>>219095572shalom
>>219088314GeeWho could be behind this?
The old 4chan adage of >everyone hates x? it must be based then!never fails
Nixon at least had the decency to voluntarily resign.
>>219096926>not him
>>219101237Only because he was about to be impeached
>>219098555Not really. People approached him and said we have to get off the gold standard (we technically had been off of it since 1913 when something like only 40% of money had to be backed by gold, then in 1934 the Gold Reserve Act was passed which shook things up) and he signed it into effect because he had no choice. Blaming Nixon for muh gold standard is for midwits
>>219096487> Nice try. Plus Indians love Israel. Your poltroon programming needs an update./pol/ IS Indian you stupid fuck. The Twitter update already exposed 90% of you Hitler loving retards as being Indians.
>>219098414Not for nothing but most of those emails were literally Epstein seething about him. Besides if he was a pedophile than that would’ve come out during his first presidency, no he loves Jews purely for loving them.
>>219101861And how many times was Trump impeached with no resignation?
>>219101163I blame ironic humor
>>219101163Contrarianism isn’t real.>>219102907Neither is irony.
