Nixon belongs in the top four. Forget about Watergate. It doesn’t matter. What matters is the Gold Standard, China, EPA, Congressional Budget Act of 1974, Hospitals for Profit and other things that still haunt us.

China was a blunder of epic scale. Of course, Nixon elevated China out of weakness, but it led to the deindustrialization of the US. We never should have normalized relations with Communist China while they were practicing communism.
My point exactly.
China was Nixon’s unforgivable sin. That and killing Bretton Woods with his “shock” was knife in the back of our Republic.
