Jewel Repetition posted:So the other day Thom Hartmann said that there were alarming similarities in the candidates of this election and the 1968 election, and the more I think about it the harder it is to unsee. Hubert Humphrey was running against an insurgent campaign by Eugene McCarthy after Robert Kennedy had been murdered and LBJ was basically driven from office by the escalating failure of the Vietnam War. After Kennedy died, a number of his loyalists threw their support behind George McGovern (who would be the Dems candidate in 1972). The 1968 convention was an absolute bloody fiasco where police security was so brutal that Dan Rather ended up getting roughed up inside of the convention hall. In spite of ~3/4ths of the Democrat voter base being anti-war, the Dems refused to add an anti-war plank to the platform. No one was unified, everyone was pissed, and Humphrey was facing a newly popular GOP led by Richard Nixon, and whatever else you can say about Nixon he was an able politician and campaigner. This year wasn't even a kerfluffle compared to 1968, and a thin-skinned, ignorant blowhard like Trump is nowhere near the dangerous campaigner that Nixon was.

nixon is so profoundly different from trump, and i don't mean that in a 'he was a good secret liberal' way, he was scum, but he was also just a different man in so many huge ways

Trump and Nixon are very alike in that they both desperately craved acceptance from high society, but instead felt spurned and spited, so tried to remake themselves out to be the People's champion.

Dems are relativly unified(apart from various sections of the far left, but thats typical) and trump is no nixon. if i were to make a comparison. nixon was Palpatine, some one who can "control" their anger well enough in public and can use chaos and cheating to climb his way to power and got poo poo done. Trump is kylo renn, an overly angry shithead who says something stupid and/or awful every day in public. he throws tantrums and can get his rear end kicked if you know how. JHomer722 posted:lmao "Patton wouldn't like emails." why does he jerk off to patton so much. patton was a good company commander and soldier, but he was a loving nutjob and idiot with everything else. he got lucky and died right as the war ended. the dude would have been terrible in war now a days as a general. he probaly would have been a good on the field officer though.
