not good "Optics" there

Still, there are other Dem governors

and that is the only one I recall because it is the only funny one

I tend to like governor presidents

Carter, Reagan, Clinton (Bill), Bush II

I like..one of those.

Were you even alive during Reagan?

No

I rest my case

but Carter is a (legit) Anti Semetic asshole

Bill brought us Hillary

and.

I'm reelecting Jackson.

GET OUT THE BUSHES

The one who ordered the Trail of Tears?

Hell yeah, he also had a parrot that wouldn't stop swearing

Beat a dude with a stick in Congress as well

Sounds great..

beating people

murdering indians

I believe he also shot a few people in duels, and was shot once, and then shot back and killed the guy

almost as good as Woodrow

I mention Jackson whenever someone tries to claim "Trump is the most racist president ever"

...

Most don't even know who he is until I explain the Trail of Tears

and not Woodrow Wilson?

Mr. Birth of a Nation?

Oh, Wilson is up there

But I think the Trail of Tears takes the cake

Just because it was directed at similar ethnic groups doesn't necessarily make Jackson a racist.

He probably would have done the same to any ethnic group that was in the way of his interests.

Bush was the one that totally fucked up the middle ieast

Are they unironic

?

We had presidents who owned black slaves.

Do they know that?

I don't see how owning black slaves makes you racist.

But the system was racial.

Maybe you could own a black slave without being racist, if the system was neutral towards race, but AFAIK, it was not back then.

The system was racial, and attitudes could be racist, though owning slaves wasn't quite racist, it often was

You'd get some progressive slave owners, as odd as that sounds
