I seen Warren Harding eatin’ chili and fries at a Wendy’s in Fresno last April…
A President of the United States being unfaithful to his wife? Who would ever believe such a thing?
Every presidential history account I’ve read has been compiled by a leftist, and they almost ALL paint Pres. Harding as one of the worst presidents in history. So I take it with a grain of salt.
The same presidential history book that I have absolutely trashes President Reagan, so I know it’s mostly garbage.
The only scandals our one-party press sees are Republican scandals, usually mis-represented.
So he might still be alive !
One wonders when Carter will pass away. It wouldn’t surprise me if they are holding him on ice until when they need a push in the polls.
If anyone is interested in a history podcast episode defending Harding and saying that he may have been one of the best US Presidents....
I seen werewolves in London...............
Harding had at least one mistress and at least one illegitimate child, but I doubt girlfriends traveled with him and his wife.
He wasn't Jack Kennedy for Pete's sake.
Most recent Presidents haven't given away their wealth; Carter spent time and money on Habitat for Humanity, and of course Trump has a reputation for helping people one-on-one, plus taking over and funding the Central Park renovation.
Oh, wait a minute...
Nice hoax, let's roll with it. :^)
Ma, ma, where’s my pa?
Off to the White House, ha ha ha!
(That was a few decades before Harding.)
It was Washington who said we should not get entangled with foreign affairs, but he never said anything about domestic.
Those kinds of tunnels were everywhere in major cities during prohibition. However, they weren’t just suddenly dug because people needed a secret way to get to the speakeasy. They already existed, because they were used to deliver coal to the basements of various businesses in the area from a central dropoff location. They just repurposed the existing coal tunnels to use as hidden entrances.
Harding isn't too popular on the Left. After all, he massively cut the Federal bureaucracy, which had ballooned during the Wilson administration, and he also cut taxes. His free-market economic policies got us out of the post-WWI depression and launched a recovery that would last the rest of the decade.
Both Teapot Dome and Watergate were nothing compared to the inherent corruption seen in the late 20th century of Clinton and Biden regimes. In both cases, neither Harding nor Nixon were directly involved, neither did either benefit or were enriched by the "scandal."
But it helps leftists keep people's attention focused elsewhere.
Harding's home in Marion, Ohio. The home is filled with original artifacts from the time Harding lived there. The street outside has changed little since 1920, when Harding campaigned for president from his front porch.
