Seeing how much Futurama made fun of Richard Nixon made me reconsider whether or not he was actually a bad guy.

Considering what the DNC gets away with these days, the real Nixon wasn't a bad guy.
Why don’t the writers like him?
Republican bad
Because he lives in Boomer heads rent free. And represents everything about their parents they hate
So even thirty years after he kicked the bucket, they need to degrade him
Nixon was based
From what I gather Nixon was basically the DRUMPF of the 70's.
literally came here to post this. Nixon was unironically a wannabe-Ivy League version of Trump. he literally tried to go over the CIA and give himself unchecked executive power because he thought having a wacko VP would keep him from being assassinated like Jack. unfortunately for him the clandestine US apparatus compelled his VP to step down, and that was basically the sign from on high that
>if you don’t resign we’re going to kill you
Trump is an awful person and was an awful president. Nixon was an awful person and a good president.
>Nixon was a good president
Literally impeached.
Nixon is one of the best characters in the show
Groening has Nixon Derangement Syndrome.
I AM NOT CRAZY! I know he rigged the election. As if I could lose by such a margin. Never. Never! I just - I just couldn't prove it. He covered his tracks, he got his father's idiot mob pals to cook the books for him. You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This crookery? He's done worse. That actress! Are you telling me that Monroe just HAPPENED to overdose like that? No! HE orchestrated it! JACK! And I debated him. And I shouldn't have. I agreed to a televised debate. What was I thinking. He'll never change. He'll never change! Ever since he was 9, always the same! Couldn't keep his hands out of the mistresses' underwear draw! 'But not our Jacky! Couldn't be our precious Jacky!' Screwing America blind! And HE gets to be President? What a sick joke! I should have contested him when I had the chance! And you, you have to impeach him! You—

kek
Not only that but Nixon/Trump followed Presidents who the media and celebrities gushed/cheerleading over.

Not bad, not bad
>hey guys dont come to dallas tomorrow
He took us off the gold standard and that's bad enough. Final nail in the coffin
don't care gdp went up
Nixon was a bad guy. He committed actual war crimes.
And Barry ordering drone strikes that killed over a dozen children under the age of 12 is....not?
Nixon was an butthole neocon but the purity-spiralling left, being the purity-spiralling left, still hated him with the power of 1000 suns and basically impeached a politician for lying. Nonetheless, the whole Kennedy-Johnson-Nixon trifeca is a kino bit of history.
god I wish I was nixon so much. I type up little bait posts, don't shower IRL and shout loudly in public to try and generate seethe but I could never imagine generating as much seethe as Nixon.
imagine being dead for decades, so long that people who don't know who you are, are having kids that don't know who you are. And STILL people are seething about you.
frick it must be glorious.
you act like nixon was some ancient thing but when Ford pardoned him, he did so at the urging of his chief of staff, Dick Goddamn Cheney
Hold on, Nixon didn't step down with the understanding he'd get pardoned? What did Goldwater do you persuade him to step down, appeal purely to morality or party politics over his own self interest?
>dick cheney
literally who grandpa?
*is the last good president*
>Cartert
>good President
Wut? Is this bait? The narrative is only that he was a good man, and even then he and his wife have skeletons in their closet what with Jim Jones. Who knows if the Carter Center is any good or not (being an ngo for "charity")
>HATED A BABY?
AW, COME ON!
HE'S HISTORY'S GREATEST MONSTER!
Nixon's childhood sounded kino. Like his insecurity over not being a rich blue blood withstanding, he grow up in WASP early 20th century California surrounded by family everywhere. Not some nuclear family, but a big multigenerational one.
Nixon embezzelled tons of money from his campaign and was beholden to the mafia
I'd unironically rather have that then insider trading and being behold to international corporations
it’s the same shit, anon. the mob legitimized itself in the private sector. literally the same ppl from the mob are in the corporations
Imagine simping for Richard Nixon on Cinemaphile
Lol get a life
all american presidents are evil pedophiles and burgers are the laughing stock of the world thinking they still live in a democracy and not a dictatorship done up to simulate democracy. bet you fat fricks think that votes are still counted and the total isn't rigged from the start.
This is like an r/atheism take from the Bush era.
The ticket America needed but didn't deserve
