Eisenhower committed genocide but I guess that isn't scandalous.

    The comments I read are surprisingly good, at least. They immediately started digging into Eisenhower's scandals with the Dulles brothers lol. I need to read that book, The Brothers, someone recommended in there. Makes you wonder why someone would make this post at all when it's that easy to disprove in the very first comment...

      The person who posted it has terminal 'Great Man Syndrome' brain. One of their more recent comments (ALL of their recent comments are in the stupid 'r/Presidents' sub):

      McCain would've been a great president if he won in 2000

      Seriously, the person who posted that thread is an idiot.

        Thank holy Fuck McCain wasn't president in 2000 or he would have totally dropped nukes. Not on the Taliban or bin Ladin. Just in general he would have used them somewhere (anywhere) after 9/11.
