No outrage over the tan suit?

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Ah you noticed that every president since WWII has worn tan suits. Very good.

Richard Nixon always looked like he was born with extra face.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

Charlie kirk is his arch nemesis.

[–] Wardacus16@lemmy.world 28 points 2 years ago (2 children)

He looks like Jimmy Carr with a bigger jaw.

[–] ASeriesOfPoorChoices@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Jimmy's older, shittier brother.

"My gravest secret is that I really did fake the moon landing. On Venus!" ―Richard M. Nixon

[–] pigup@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

He got one in his hand, one in his mouth

[–] JohnOliver@feddit.dk 11 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Is that a bible in front of him?

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Well he was a republican, so probably

It's one of their starter pack accessories

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 years ago

It wasn't really unique before him. He is the reason for the identity of modern Republicans as the party of the bible thumping, bigoted southerners. Before Nixon, neither party really tried to court that demographic. Nixon changed the game and is responsible for most of the modern political tribalism.

They use it for both blocking criticism and to beat people with.

Richard Nixon always looks less polished than JFK of his era, because Slicky Dick refused to wear makeup for TV and pictures, thinking it was woman's stuff.

[–] moistclump@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

And then popped those two beetles in his mouth one in each cheek.

[–] genuineparts 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I remember my body. Flabby, pasty skin, riddled with phlebitis. A good republican body.

[–] Jackcooper@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Before his jowels grew in

[–] sverit@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

He looks like he has ultramumps

[–] QuantumSparkles@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 years ago

“No mom I swear I’m making them… uh… fight

It's funny, I've seen so many caricatures of Nixon that I forgot what he actually looked like.

[–] muzzle@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Is there a game of Thrones reference there?
