I mean thats sounding like he is good because he avoided being as bad as his party could be. Not seeing anything making him better than biden, clinton, obama, carter necessarily.
Three out of the four that you mentioned there worked to serve the needs of corporations. One of them created the toxic radical right-wing fascist talk radio environment that we’ve been suffering from for the past 30 years, and another one allowed a scotus pick to be taken and legalized propaganda.
Ok so if any of them served during ikes time by not doing anything they would have done as well as him. Im not so sure he would have done as well in their situations. Who the heck created the right wing radio and how exactly? By being a talking point? And Obama did not allow a scotus pick to be taken. What do you think he should have done to stop it. Nothing like ike did. It seems like you are lionizing ike because he walked into the position when the country was in a much better position. Your 3 of 4 would be 3 post reagan which again the one left was in a bit of a better situation although not as nice as ike being post nixon. I really think you are being to hard on the more recent presidents and to nice to ike.
what pisses me off is someone pawning this off on clinton. This bill passed with veto proofed majority so of course he signed it. No president vetoes a bill when that is the case because it makes them look bad and just wastes everyone’s time. Granted that was back when the republicans still compromise some so no one was looking to iritate people they had to work with for no reason.
no he should not have. again it was a time were some compromises could come about and not the cluster of dysfunction we had today. don’t get me wrong it was well on its way but there was at least at that time some hope for it. It did not get totally buried until obama.
I know about the speech but I did not know he had increased taxes as they were still high from ww2.
