re: #358 can’t think of a decent username
I think I’ve mentioned in the past I recently read a book called “Crooked” by Austin Grossman. It’s essentially a horror comedy starring Nixon as a guy who accidentally spends his life spying for the Russians and fighting Lovecraftian monsters. Grossman portrays Nixon as a guy who wanted to be the hero, who wanted to be a truly good person, but couldn’t resist his inner asshole or even do much to resist his own ambitions. (It’s also first-person, so you expect it to let Nixon give himself the benefit of the doubt.)
Also the most utterly terrifying person in the book, even more than the god-empowered Russian spy or the immortal and inhuman sorcerer Kissinger, is Dwight Eisenhower.
WTF? Ok, why? If you want, put it behind private tags.
