>>1967046
The Charge in San Juan Hill was a fucking disaster. Teddy's Rough Rider memesters charge was fucking halted, necessitating a group of negro soldiers with gatling guns to save his fucking ass.

And then there was the assorted stupid shit prior the battle like the ordering a big red balloon to spot for the US army...in the middle of the Jungle. When Spanish soldiers saw the balloon rise up from the jungle they raked its launch area with artillery.

>>1967046
Failed imperialist, tried to get the USA into South America and Asia, and fucked up both times.
Fucked up his party by splitting it apart.
Fucked up his political career by going to the jungle to get sick like a moron.
Geographers worldwide hate him for splitting the Americas with a canal, so that now the argument of weather it is one or two continents is still going.


>>1967069
Who the fuck is that guy?
He led the country through no wars.
No foreign policy milestones like Thomas Jefferson’s Louisiana Purchase or the “Doctrines” of James Monroe or Harry Truman highlighted Jackson’s presidency.
He crafted no path-breaking legislative program like Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal or Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society.
Indeed Jackson’s sole major legislative victory in eight years was an 1830 law to “remove” the eastern Indian tribes beyond the Mississippi, something more often seen today as travesty rather than triumph.
That measure aside, the salient features of Jackson’s relations with Congress were his famous vetoes, killing a string of road and canal subsidies and the Bank of the United States, and Jackson’s official censure by the United States Senate in 1834, the only time that has yet happened.
What a tremendous failure of a meme president. Also was an alcoholic.

>>1967071
>>1967076
Europe pretty much giving up on diplomacy with the USA.
Riots and unrest around the country.
His economic plans require more spending than before, and the foreign debt will rise during his rule if he does even half of what he promised (which isn't sure he will).
And he isn't even in office yet.

>>1967092
>Europe pretty much giving up on diplomacy with the USA.
And there was much rejoicing!
Fuck the EU and fuck Merkel. Can't wait for Frexit.

>>1967085
Jackson is the most relatable president.
>never accomplish the heights of your predecessors nor the people following you
>Also he was an alcoholic

>>1967117
yiiikes

>>1967128
Increased foreign debt and racial tension.
Furthered the myths of systematic racism and sexism against the facts of the opposite.
Increased tension with Russia while ignoring the Chinese problem.
Openly interfered in other sovereign state's internal politics by commenting on Brexit and the refugee crisis.
Drew that line in the sand in the Middle East that everyone ignored, and he did nothing when it was crossed, making him appear weak.
Commissioned more super expensive fighters, bombers and aircraft carriers that are an outdated way to conduct war.
Increased social programs, making it easier and more comfortable to live as an unemployed leech, which surprisingly to nobody increased the number of unemployed leeches.

>>1967085
>>1967099
Jackson was a transformational president. One of the most important and consequential in our history.

He was the first populist president; all the presidents before him had come from a select group of political insiders, competing only with each other, and no president had been elected purely on the strength of their popular support. In doing so he paved the foundations for literally every presidential campaign since then. His famous veto killing the Bank (made in the face of considerable pressure against him) was one of the most important vetoes in the country's history, settling an issue that under a different president could easily have gone the other way. He led the nation through the Nullification Crisis, the first real challenge to the federal gov't on the part of the states; he prevented a secession, set the precedent that secession would not be tolerated (I wonder if that ever became relevant later?) and strengthened the executive branch, the ramifications of which are still being felt.

I'm not going to defend the Indian Removal Act according to the standards of OUR time, but it's one of the most poorly-understood acts in our history. It was opposed by two camps, those who felt it was an inhumane act of treachery, and those who felt it didn't go far enough. There were voices calling for outright extermination, and if the Indian tribes hadn't been forcibly removed, they might have prevailed. It was still an atrocity, but context really matters.

His legacy is mixed and complex but you're ridiculously shortchanging him.

nigger what the fuck are you talking about, the EU tried to have an emergency meeting on Trump and half the countries involved declined to attend because of how stupid and pathetic it was. Duterte and Putin are ready to mend ties with the US. Mexico and Canada are ready to renegotiate NAFTA. Everybody is ready to work with Trump, cry some more you pathetic liar.

The anouncements of leaders that they will work with Trump are only being made because of how shitty they think Trump is. Any other person and that would be a given.

Trumpfags are triggered 24/7. Say one thing negative about their god-king and this is the result. They have single handedly ruined /pol/.

Primodana born with a silver spoon but was a complete poser, trying to convince everyone he was a frontiersman. In order to further his political career he forced himself into a officer position during the Spanish-American War and his foolhardy tactics got a lot of American boys killed needlessly.

Top notch president though. He cracked down on the fat cats of the gilded age and preserved our nation's beautiful wilderness.

He should be remembered as one of the greatest presidents of all time, but instead people hated him then and still do now.

He just appointed a climate change denier to the EPA. I don't know how anyone can defend this. There's good reason to believe the clathrate gun has already gone off. Things aren't looking too good for the home team boys.

>Fucked up his political career by going to the jungle to get sick like a moron.
well technically his political career was already failed before he went into the jungle like a moron. the supposed reason he went there in the first place is because he failed his campaign for a 3rd term
personally id say his political career was already over, if not doomed

>>1969689
he basically ruled a non-state

If you think aircraft and carriers are outdated means of war, you may actually be suffering from some sort of mental illness. Aircraft are the most efficient means of warfare at the moment and a CSG can project more force then anything else in the world.

He got utterly fucked by the CIA there, tho, as most of the time.
I don't think he was the most competent president ever in pragmatic terms (in fact, there's a good case for LBJ being a better politician), but JFK's character, principles and cojones were truly something else.

Yes and no. There is considerable evidence of voter fraud in Texas during the 1960 election. Not enough to tip the state in favor of Nixon without it, though. Illinois, on the other hand, was tipped in Kennedy's favor by voter fraud. Wouldn't have won Nixon the election though.
