@LadyIDO Tricky Dick and Orange Dick better?

@Jacki @LadyIDO Tricky Dick was a scholar and a gentleman compared to Orange Dick.

@Charles_Hawtrey @LadyIDO

But he was tricky....just not tricky enough to not get caught.

@Jacki @LadyIDO
He was paranoid, he won 49 out of 50 states that year. I'm from Mass, we were the only state that voted for McGovern, we had bumper stickers that said :

"Don't Blame Me, I'm From Mass"

@Charles_Hawtrey @LadyIDO

I was too young for politics. Just the little bit I saw on the news. I do remember him being referred to as paranoid though.

@Jacki @LadyIDO

Nixon was actually not that bad, he started the Environmental Protection Agency, he was smart.

@Charles_Hawtrey @LadyIDO

Agree .... nothing like the Velveeta Vulgarian as far as brains go.

@Jacki @LadyIDO

You mean the Small Brained Vulgarian? 🤣

@Charles_Hawtrey @Jacki @LadyIDO Established Amtrak, too.
But here's a "what might have been" that not many people know about. Nixon and Elliott Richardson were working on a national health insurance plan that would have provided universal coverage of catastrophic illnesses. This was in 1974, and the initiative died with Nixon's impeachment. It would have been better than the current ACA.

@KamloopsBob @Jacki @LadyIDO

Yes, Nixon was actually kind of a liberal Republican.

@KamloopsBob @Charles_Hawtrey @LadyIDO

Didn't know that - one mistake did him in...he also got us out of Nam.

@KamloopsBob @Charles_Hawtrey @Jacki I came to this country in '83. From what I read about Nixon, he was flawed but human, like most of us. TFG is not. He is a fantastic mistake of nature.

@LadyIDO @KamloopsBob @Charles_Hawtrey

That's being nice

@LnzyHou @LadyIDO

They're both most certainly crooks though.

@BosmangBeratna @LadyIDO

No question. FG makes Nixon look like a piker.
