Nixon was a real great president , big diffence what we got now with wacko joe..

[@unassistedsuicide2243]

Nixon was a paranoid, alcoholic criminal who, for political expediency, chose to drag out our direct military involvement in Southeast Asia until the bombing of Cambodia ended in August 1973. Nixon and Kissinger knew from Day 1 there was no way to win that war without killing every living thing in South & North Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia

The US would rare witness a president like Richard Nixon .

[@inzhener2007]

Both wars on Afghanistan and Iraq were terrible mistakes because if those two didn't happen that could be the final epic end of all big ears in history.

[@reinhard7572]

He was a great President. He inherited that war, remember that. Always remember that.

[@WhiteCamry]

And he made it his own, remember that. Always remember that.

Don't be silly, Nixon was one of the first, if not the first polictian to believe in the domino effect in Vietnam, he was one of the first hawks.

[@unassistedsuicide2243]

More than 20,000 American soldiers and hundreds of thousands more combatants & civilians died during Nixon’s time in office. Yeah what a hero
