A liberal Democrat? yes... but if only liberal democrats were more like him:
1. Life member (honorary) of the NRA
2. War hero/pro military (not a particularly good officer but who did act heroically under fire.
3. Ran on a platform to “end the missile gap” i.e. raise military spending.
4. Was “anti-communist”.
5. Cut taxes to simulate the economy.
While he may not be as conservative as some say he “was” more conservative than what you imply...
Indeed. Compared to the filth in the White House right now, he looks purty damn good...
Fact, if he had lived he would passed every “great society” thing that Johnson did and you would hate his guts.
He was swine like the rest of family.
Nixon was also a POS but we’d have been better of if Daley and Johnson didn’t steal the 1960 election.
