There's a good argument to be made he was the most evil president we ever had. Between

• prolonging the Vietnam war by five years through sabotaging the negotiations while he was still just running for president
• perfecting southern strategy campaigning and organizing all the neo-Confederates we're still dealing with as a new bloc of Republicans
• founding the DEA and kicking off the war on drugs to jail and destabilize anti-war protesters and the black panthers,
• all of the cheating he did during the 1972 campaign, which the Watergate break-in was only a part of
• Cheering on the genocide of Bengalis by Pakistani generals because "muh Cold War allies!"

the roots of a ton of our modern problems go back to this paranoid alcoholic racist piece of shit

e; had to add in the Bengali genocide
