One thing Nixon didn’t do was challenge the 1960 Election, even though he knew it was stolen.
I have always held that as somewhat of a badge of honor for Nixon that he didn’t.
Times were different then. We were more politically naive then as a nation, and Leftism had not yet advanced to the defiantly open stage it occupies now.
Personally, I have always given Nixon latitude due to his finally taking the fight to the North Vietnamese with the Linebacker II B-52 bombing campaign of December 1972.
What we should have been doing all along.
