Wasn't National Review founded by William F. Buckley Jr.

How far they have fallen, Biden's crooks make Nixon's look like stealing from a candy store.

Nixon was railroaded. There is a ten part series about Nixon on Red Pilled America that makes this clear. If nothing else what other President can claim to have made a phone call to the Moon?

I despised Nixon and LBJ and most of the leaders of the time, from university heads to Supreme Court Justices, they were destroying America with their liberalism.

The same kind of underhanded lawfare used against Trump was used against Richard Nixon.

I adored Nixon and cried when I watched him get into the helicopter for the last time. Visited his library and got an autographed copy of one of his books. Was deeply impressed by his foreign policy vision and watched Watergate religiously on the edge of my seat. Adored G. Gordon Liddy and passed out copies of his book Will to everyone I knew.

Worked for him in my last year of high school, that is, for 3 local Republicans in Chicago. Only Republican in a Catholic girls’ high school that was gung ho for Kennedy. Got invited to a candidate’s banquet and that year I had grandmother vote straight Republican except for those 3. The trick, I had learned, was never to meet a candidate in person.

He’s still my favorite, next to Trump. It was probably that I had more time free then to concentrate on him. I was busier when Reagan came along and was turned off by Nancy so never paid Reagan as much attention as he deserved.

Congress should have been pinning medals on the entire Nixon Administraion. Watergate was about trying to keep a known-Communist out of the White House! The Nixon Administartion succeeded! Nixon, particularly, was a true patriot and hero as well as all of his staff!

All of the naysayers can go jump!

Chris Wallace's new book Countdown 1960: The Behind-the-Scenes Story of thre 312 Days that Changed America's Politics Forever (sine loco: Random House, 2024) shows Nixon on a favorable light, which surprised me, given Wallace's liberalism. However, he concludes by contrasting Nixon, who accepted the election's many questionable results with Donald Trump, whom he portrayed as a sore loser who incited thousands of people to storm the Capitol, "trashing the citadel of American democracy, and even setting up a gallows outside while chanting "Hang Mike Pence."

Nixon in 1968 had to deal with 57 Democrat Senators and 243 Democrats in the house and in 1972 56 Democrat Senators and 241 Democrats in the house. He did just about the best he could under the circumstances. After a landslide win in 72 he picked up almost nothing in congress.

You cannot understand “Watergate” until you understand the role of the FBI and the genesis of Crossfire Hurricane.

This a-hole is younger than some of my grandchildren - and he’s telling me what I should think about Richard Nixon and the Watergate frame-up? Good grief.

Where do people find these stupid articles? Oh, that’s right - NR.

A lot of videos of him have been popping up on YouTube from the Nixon Foundation. He was a brilliant man. He predicted a number of things we are dealing with now - his warnings were not heeded. Iran was a big one.

Nixon was one of the first, in a long list of US presidents to sell out America to Communist China. At the same time Nixon was being friendly to the commies, they were helping to kill our men in Vietnam.

No country has helped to kill or harm more Americans post WWII than China. Either in the frozen land of Korea, or aiding and helping the NVA.

American presidents, regardless of party, always look the other way to the harm China does.
