Nixon - Started this globalism bull crap that has resulted in the gutting of American industry and created a Chinese monster and a second cold war. So he is number 1.

Truman gets credit for the China monster. The Chinese had spies in his administration , so they knew in advance nuclear weapons would not be used. If that had remained uncertain Korea would be United and free.

Yes. RINO before the acronym.

China. EPA. Title IX. 55 MPH. List goes on.

Still the left hates him.

Nixon didn’t start the globalism bit. That was either FDR or Wilson (with the UN and League of Nations, respectively). While Nixon might not have actually helped to stop it (though to be fair, even Ronald Reagan supported the UN, which I think was a big mistake), he was largely innocent of actually starting it.

He also wasn’t responsible for creating the Chinese monster. Again, that was FDR’s fault, and more directly the fault of Stilwell and to a lesser extent Marshall (China wouldn’t even BE communist had they just backed Chiang Kai-Shek).

I won’t comment on the whole “second cold war” bit, though.
