amateur compared compared to "Tricky Don" but it doesn't hurt to connect these two lunatics.

(257 posts)Nixon was a walk in the park compared to the human garbage we have today with Trump!

Vote for Nixon in '72.
If only all important historical events could be encapsulated so easily.

(24,486 posts)For instance, the other day when he was talking about getting rid of Head Start. Really?
Does Trump even know what Head Start is?

(258 posts)is my very first memory of anything involving the government. I remember asking my dad, who watched the hearings compulsively, "Daddy, why is the same thing on TV all the time now?" His answer: "Because, honey, the president did a very bad thing." I turned five a month before Nixon resigned.
A few months later, I learned about Jimmy Carter from my "Howard the Duck" comic books and I fell head over heels in (platonic!) love with that decent, honest man. I followed the 1976 election and was ecstatic when Jimmy won! That was the genesis of my becoming a lifelong Democrat!

(78,861 posts)This afternoon, I will again hold my sign. It has a mean-looking color photo of Nixon, and says: "Nixin looking down from hell in disgust." I've had a few people ask, "Don't you mean up from hell?" I resond by asking exactly where hell is? Only one tried to answer.
I will say I enjoyed reading our friend here noting that Roy Cohn connected Nixon and the felon. Knowing history is so important. Roy worked closely with Roger Stone during the Nixon and Reagan years.
