It probably helps that they’re both evil, so not total opposites.
You missed it by one word…

I wonder if that correction makes Trump and Nixon even more similar.
I am not sure you will find a photo of a certain German dictator with a funny beard paying for a photo with Kissinger…
as subtle as a mob cement truck loaded with diarrhea.
Rob, are you ok with the concept of being someone’s new pretend mentor? … asking for a friend
He also said he’d do the exact same thing again. He may be a traditional law man, but he’s also traditional when it comes to seeing what he wants, rationalizing his behaviour, and compartmentalizing.
The public has put up with a lot from Trump, but using quotation marks for emphasis? Surely that’s a bridge too far.
I don’t know. People will forgive a lot if it’s the “President” doing it.
I love that that stupid game theorey meme won’t die.
Someone has to clean the toilets!
Well, if he can’t be a Supreme Court Justice, that would be good with me. Actually, I’m serious about the SCOTUS thing, I think he’d be excellent as a justice.
The ‘Nixon wasn’t that bad, at least he loved his country’ bout of revisionism going here is ridiculous.
Nixon was a criminal, corrupt, power hungry egomaniac. He had no respect for democracy, was racist AF, and to boot left a body count that the Don will need at least one full term to match.
That’s what happens when you compare Nixon to the Clintons for 20 years.
The sad thing is I don’t care for the Clintons one iota, yet concur completely. False equivalence is the name of the game, and the game is making everything mean nothing.
I just saw a discussion on Colbert with the old cast of the Daily Show. At one point John Stewart, talking about the criticism they would get, said: “People hold comedians to higher standards than they hold our leaders.”
Nixonian indeed. Lest we forget:
You know who else had odd food habits?
Since Comey is fired, I don’t think you can call anything he chooses to say a “leak”. You have to be inside to leak.
I think Obama would make a better judge/justice than president. I mean, if Taft could be chief justice after being president, why not Obama (aside from the fact that republicans would sooner set fire to the capitol building than hold a confirmation hearing for him)?
wouldn’t a mob cement truck loaded with diarrhea actually be pretty subtle, I mean you would definitely not be expecting it as a diarrhea delivery mechanism.
Yeah, that’s a good one. I think he’s totally right. I also think people are slowly realizing it, too - I’m no longer seeing those “what kind of five-dimensional chess is this administration playing when Trump said X that seemed really stupid?” sorts of analyses. People are realizing he is, indeed, that stupid and reactive-in-the-moment.
Kissinger was only there to service the vintage recording equipment.
