To: a fool in paradise

“Nixon let JFK steal an election because he didn’t want to put the country through challenges and investigations.”

Yes - and then he made the same decision when he resigned over the Watergate witch hunt. Conservatives are at a disadvantage because they have moral scruples and do not believe the end justifies the means, while the Left will descend to any depth.

This is President Trump’s gift to The Republic: He is teaching conservatives that they can fight back without betraying their principles. He is reminding the American people that there is no dishonor in standing one’s ground.

Nixon meant well, but he was wrong to back down - he thought he was sparing us by doing it. He should have stood his ground, like President Trump is doing.
