I guess the Left doesn’t think much of Nixon for winding down the Vietnam War, the breakthrough with China, the breakthrough with the Soviet Union, or even the creation of the EPA.
To be fair, Obama brought turmoil in Egypt and Syria and North Africa, created and armed ISIS, and gave billions to Iran to fund their weapons programs and export terrorism. So he did big things too.
Loved your comment. Very cleverly done.
He kept George McGovern from becoming President, and Watergate proves (in their mind) that the election was stolen.
He also hated American commies, which is enough for the left to never give him credit for anything, since the issue is never the issue, the issue is always the revolution. Nixon held back the revolution twice, once in the 1950s as an anti-Communist in Congress, and once in the 1970s by removing the Vietnam War as a means of causing the revolution.
Thanks!
and weaponized the EPA
In high school at the time and Mr. Gornbein, our government teacher had us memorize all Nixon appointments. William Ruckelhouse was head of EPA. I can remember cause I was mad about having to spell name!
I’ve always believed it was Nixon’s persistence and role in Hiss being taken down that made him the target the left and communists would never stop trying to destroy.
