    The big disappointment was that Nixon failed to end the Vietnam War .. Vietnam and Watergate ruined him , sad to say .. We believed him at the time when he stated he was going to end the Vietnam war We believed him at the time when he stated he was not a crook concerning Watergate .. It turned out we believed in a man that was not credible , sad to say

    @@retroguy9494 trump was accused of groping and much more but paid off his accusers. Nevertheless, sooner or later this will come out. Your phrase ‘he told it as it was..’ is effectively meaningless as he basically says different lies to different people on different occasions based on whatever serves his short-time needs. But it’s not the groping, the grifting, the nepotism, the racism, the antisemitism that offends most, it’s the sheer relentless opportunism, the tendency to do or say anything that will advance him at any given moment, and the sheer gullibility of his followers who select the things they want to hear from the verbal diarrhoea he produces daily and support him on this basis, without realizing that he is capable of saying everything and its opposite in an arc of 24 hours. He believes in nothing and in nobody. He has reduced the USA to a laughing-stock and the Whitehouse may never fully recover from the stain he has placed on what was once one of the most respected offices in the world. Don’t bother responding, you’re in the cult-phase and are blindly following this madman. I do pity you. Perhaps with time you will realise, and it will be a great shock for you. Perhaps best to sleep on comfy and comatose in your delusions.

    @@mediolanumhibernicus3353 You don't want me to answer because its YOU who are delusional and don't want me to call you on it. But I feel I MUST. Trump may have grabbed women. I say 'may' because' no self respecting woman who has been violated takes a payout in lieu of charges or lawsuits. But he was NEVER accused of doing that as president. The subject of this thread is PRESIDENTS. Not what they did before they became president. Even so, sleepy Joe has been accused of the same thing! Even old man Bush grabbed that woman's ass from his wheelchair! Why do THEY get a pass? Because they aren't Donald Trump? Now, you call Trump a racist and an anti Semite. Well, he has Jewish grandchildren who he loves and dotes on constantly. Two of his three wives were immigrants. His first campaign manager was a black woman. He has hired all kinds of minorities to work in his companies. I don't know where YOU went to school, but that doesn't sound racist and anti Semitic to ME! As for being an opportunist who will say anything to further themselves, name me ONE modern president (with maybe the exception of Reagan) who has NOT been one or done that? Finally, as far as the White House being a laughing stock, if bringing manufacturing back to the U.S., proving North America can be less dependent on middle eastern oil by building a pipeline thus causing a reduction in gas prices, helping to create jobs, reducing taxes for even the middle classes, making our allies pay their fare share of world policing, getting us into more equal trade agreements, pardoning people (many of whom were black) who were given long jail sentences for minor drug offenses and building a wall to keep out criminal illegals are all a laughing stock then I want to keep on laughing!
