I can’t think of anything that Nixon did right...

How about open the gate to China and negotiate an end to our war in Viet Nam for starters?

China is more of a threat than Russia now and we lost Viet Nam and let them go communist, let Pol Pot arise in Cambodia, etc. Not saying Nixon didn’t do the right thing in both cases, I was a kid then and don’t know how limited his options were, but opening to China and surrender in Viet Nam are not clear victories given hindsight.

He nailed Alger Hiss and sent Helen Gahagan Douglas into retirement.
