Americans Think Trump Will Be Worst President Since Nixon

[Anomalocaris]

Pence is unrelectable if trump is impeached during his first term.  So the republicans will not impeach trump.

That's why the gods created mid-term elections.

Republics like to wear the flag in the cracks of their asses like g strings, but majority of them wouldn't hesitate for a microsecond to sell out any core interest of this country if they think doing so would confer temporary partisan advantage.  That's been true and blazingly clear since 1994.

1994?!?

Johnny-come-lately . . .

Yes,1994. Wearing the flag while gladly selling out the country for narrow partisan gain. That's been the republican ruling principle since the current brand of republicans under newt Gingrich and Tom delay first gained the house in 1994 and then try to impeach the president for lying about a blowjob.

Actually it's a relatively low number in that case

I guess no other president managed the limbo dance as effectively after just one week in office.

I'd say it started before then, but your point is well taken.

Trump will be the best last President in American history.

Fixed that for you.

Trump's ego is without end. He has HUGE crowds at his inauguration, he won by huge numbers of votes but there was voter fraud, yada yada. He already is talking like he will be in office for 8 years. But he is acting like he plans to be there indefinitely. The man scares me.

Nixon banned chemical warfare agents, established the EPA and went to China.

Not the slavering conservatard prototype Reagan was.

And kept me out of that fucked up war.

Nixon was a mixed bag.  Even his  Chief Justice Burger was a mixed bag too.  As wiki reminded me, abortion, capital punishment and school desegregation decisions were under his watch.

So I'm finding the Nixon/Trump comparisons a little strange since the consensus is Trump will be an unmitigated disaster, and Nixon clearly wasn't.

Nikon was a conservatard. But back then the conservatards have not yet been expelled from eden for as long, and their gene pool hasn't degraded as much as they are now.

[Angrboda]

I supported Nixon. I was convinced he would get us out of the war. In fairness, I was 8 at the time.

I was a little older, and remember either watching the landing live, or tape delay and being absolutely floored when it happened.

Emperor Trump, it does have a nice ring to it.
