Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson was blasted on social media after invoking the name of former President Richard Nixon while discussing gun crime in Chicago.
The Richard Nixon Foundation, and many conservatives on social media, are firing back at Chicago’s Democratic Mayor Brandon Johnson after he seemingly placed partial blame on former President Richard Nixon, who died 30 years ago, for Chicago’s weekend of gun violence. 'What we’ve experienced over the weekend is unacceptable and we didn’t get here overnight. And everyone knows that.
Richard Nixon was a champion of civil rights as Vice President and as President,' Byron said about Nixon, who died in 1994. 'The record is clear.' 'Unfortunately there are many misconceptions about Richard Nixon, but perceptions of years ago are now being reconsidered as we see renewed interest in studying and understanding his life and legacy in full. As of now, our correction of the record is racing toward one million views on X alone.
