Ah yes, Eisenhower, famously a good guy for running fucking Operation Wetback.

  Dang, TIL!
  
  The short-lived operation used military-style tactics to remove Mexican immigrants—some of them American citizens—from the United States.

  It’s all relative, isn’t it. Would you rather him, when the tax on rich people was over 90%, or any of the vile cunts after him?

    Well, for me personally, since I’m an anarchist, I’d rather have neither. Power corrupts, and giving too much unchecked power to any individual will lead to harm. Even FDR, one of America’s “best” presidents, also oversaw redlining and the Japanese internment camps.
