I’ve read several autobiographies and biographies of US presidents and Coolidge is one of my favorites. It’s interesting how the president of the “roaring twenties” is not fondly remembered by historians but it seems historians aren’t always fond of the truth.

Hoover liked to spend money and we all know of the disastrous reckless spending by FDR and how that turned out yet FDR is remembered as a Saint.

“I want to see this country prosperous. I want to see people get a job, I want to see people get enough to eat. We have never made good on our promises. … I say after eight years of this administration we have just as much unemployment as when we started and an enormous debt to boot!”

Henry Morgenthau

FDRs Secretary of the Treasurer 1934-1945

Isn't this the jerk who was shown the door at Powerline, perhaps because he did his LEVEL BEST to elect Hillary and Creepy Joe? Why, yes it is! Why, he's a Trump-hater, which means he's anti-American and anti-America First.

WHAT a CREEP!
