He's got some zingers of a few comments about his fellow politicians.
I like when he & Kissinger replied that Reagan had a little brain and was (shallow) just google it! He & Kissinger both felt that Reagan would be accepted for what he said and not what he did- because he is afterall..an actor.
When Senator/actor Fred Thompson ran for prez in 2008- another Nixon tape was released. When a young Thomspon was to lead in the water gate scandal on Nixon's behalf he responded Oh shit, that kid," ?
Another time when Thompson was to lead against the top democrats Nixon replied :He's dumb as hell!
He didn't hold his tongue- he is also quoted on gays- they had to clean the boy scout and cub scouts from those god damn fags LMAO!!
Tricky Dick totally misunderstood the power of the new tool television (the making of the president) and his paranoia of it- seemed to suggest the origin of our current hostile partisan divide where Republicans feel television is liberal, news is liberal.
Those under Nixon's camp created this shitful environment of partisan television.
Where I am compromised with Nixon- this dude...Richard aka Tricky-Dick sided with affirmative Action! Hateful republicans today, like to forget it. Check out [Nixon 1971 Affirmative Action]
Republicans like Nixon & predecessor Eisenhower led on civil rights.
But today-asshole republicans loathe such actions....
And when it came to invoking civil rights & the 15th amendment..Democrats like
Democrat John F. Kennedy voted with the South
while..
Richard Nixon broke the tie in the Senate to kill the Southern amendments- that who have diluted blacks rights.
Where Nixon & Republicans lost minority votes- When King died, religious demons today called televangelists [who were democrats] at the time...Told leades that Martin Luther King wasn't a Christian he was a communsist. Do not show sympathy to Coretta Scott King- So Nixon under diress- stayed silent.
Kennedy jumped all over it. That next sunday black churches across the nation (because whites didn't want our black asses in their seats) SPREAD the news Nixon was silent and Kennedy spoke out, cause an almost overnight reaction.
Blacks went to the polls under misguided information. They (black) for the 1st time voted democratic for Kennedy, while whites like Ronald Reagan and religious men like Bill Graham, Pat Robertson helped to migrate to the Republicans
Nixon got a raw deal. He made on bad decision- but because there was no by the minute media- there was no way to have understood it.
Nixon for all his faults, was probably a good politician, possibly a decent human being, but most importantly- he called a spade a spade a racist a racist and a dumb man (Reagan) a dumb man.![]()
