Dreadful, actually, but he was a very decent man.

To be fair, though, I think I'd take Grant over the crew I'm seeing the left offer up. He does, at least, have that 'decent man' thing going for him.

I agree. President Grant was simply not up to the administrative requirements of the job, and there found himself mired in scandals due to the people he appointed.

He wasn’t corrupt, personally, nor was he a Stalin-wannabee, a radical leftist nutcase, or a malpractice lawyer. I’d be happy to have him over for supper, which is more than I’d say for any Democrat (and several Republican) presidential candidate.
