Washington and TR are my favorite

JFK and Teddy Roosevelt get honorable mentions

haven't given it thought in a while though

My ancestor was a Stone Mason for this, St. John the Baptist Church in NYC. He died from complications from breathing in the dust

beautiful church

Contrast the churches and cathedrals our ancestors built one thousand years ago with the degenerate/nihilistic ones of the modern world.

I like Polk specifically because he set out to achieve a specific set of attainable goals and achieved them

you need to go to the vatican at least once in your lifetime, whether you're a catholic or not

>54'40 or fight
>settles border at 49th parallel
>Polk "achieved" his goals

Well you have to examine what 54'40 or fight meant. It meant resolving a border conflict with the British, but making it clear that he was looking to make a deal that was favorable to America and wasn't willing to get fleeced on it. In the end I think setting a clear border on the 49th parallel is an amazing achievement. Its like Trump style negotiation. Set a favorable boundary to the negotiation so you walk away with what you want. @Deleted User

Think of how Trump said Mexico would pay for the wall. What he conveyed with that message is that the wall was not just a physical barrier, but a message to the rest of the world that America will no longer tolerate unfavorable trade deals. Mexico will not physically pay for the wall, but they will stop taking advantage of us because of the message the wall sends and how Trump plans to use that message

Fair enough

i have a soft spot for jimmy carter

nice guy

christian

family man

but weak and incompetent president

Beat cancer multiple times

Yeah I have nothing personal against Jimmy Carter

His failure also caused a psuedo awakening of conservatives and shattered the far left Democrat hegemony

Not saying Reagan was perfect, but its undeniable Reagan was a massive step in the right direction

Naturally the Bush's ruined it.

Bush did too much CIA shit during Reagan's presidency

and Reagan unleashed the Mexican hordes on California

ruined his own state

Fuckin BASED

the shitting on reagan meme in the AR has gone entirely too far.

reagan is GAY

^

"Don't shit on Ronald Reagan even though he granted amnesty to a million spics and turned his own state permanently blue!"

Isn't it just astonishing that an actor managed to lie his way into the presidency

this is literally reagan

@Solipsistic Vinarchy or at least George HW Bush

@Deleted User Just being a contrarian
"Omgf!!! You didn't mention Polk literally the best president evar!!! 54 40 or fite!!!"
t. bugman historian
Polk's not a bad president but a lot of pretentious folks overrate him for the sake of showing off their basic knowledge of American history

Polk fought a war to pay for the privilege of buying sparsely populated land

>one of the few American presidents who was a true imperialists

it was a good investment though

and Polk optics cucked by paying

he didn't want to look like a bad no-good imperialist

>cucked brits out of WA and OR

we had Mexico City on lockdown, we didn't have to pay if we didn't want to

>WAAAA he didnt get BC! >:((((((

This is canon

Also this

its a shame franklin pierce was a failed president

he wanted to take cuba

and that wouldve been neat

James buchanan also was an imperialist

Went to Fort Churchill on Easter and learned about the Pyramid Lake war of 1860. Fellas they went to kill all the Indians cause they thought it would be easy and a good time. We are fucking soft. Soft.

Well the society was behind them all the way

It was actually considered a vigilante war and they got their ass kicked. 75 of 105 died.

when will america ever realize who our REAL greatest ally is

kill israel

kill england

i don't think they liked the cheese eating surrender monkey meme

Freedom fries was a better meme

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANZUS

this plus canada

and we'll have a better version of the british empire

because britain wouldnt be involved

The CIA overthrew the Australian government in 1975

Cos we weren't gonna renew the Pine Gap agreement

If not for Chinese infiltration of our government we'd be better off without the US

We basically have to choose if we want to remain a US puppet state or become a Chinese one

Aussies couldn't even win against emus

Australia has become a newly conquered province of China

Chinese population in Australia: nearly 6%, adding greencards, work visas, students, is much higher

and Chinese are insanely overwhelmingly commie

so it means that Chinese Communist Party has literally become a mainstream big party in Australia

and Canada

Yeah but they're ChinBol so they don't do the globohomo. They carry their nationalism and people with pride!

ironically, right?

chinks make kikes look like angels

and Chinese commie nationalism cares more about destroy and enslave others than improve themselves

China is a country with a fuse

Chinese civil wars are common not because of ethnic or religious divisions, but because of greed

At some point there'll be a crisis of leadership in the party, and leaders of the coastal cities of countless millions in population and billions in income will try to grab more power for themselves

It won't be immediate but there will be a slide into a warring city state dynamic

If you think about it

could the sanctuary state shit be compared to the nullification crisis?

@Huge Brain Oliver quite a ridiculous stretch to say the communist party is "literally a mainstream big party in australia"

what kind of big mainstream party doesnt win a single electorate, ever?

of course metaphorically

but they do have some control

puppet control is more dangerous since they are not on ballot, it is harder to hold them accountable

they have the whole Chinese population in Australia tho

a relatively unknown history fact is that Hitler actually liked anime and endorsed it as a propaganda tool. this is a photo of him with his dragon waifu, 1941 (colorized)
