Richard Nixon was popular during the beginning of his presidency. he showcased his diplomatic skills by ending the war and mending the U.S. and China's relationship. but as his presidency progressed, the public found many reasons to deem him a bad president. he betrayed the country regarding Watergate, and he failed to maintain his Oath, thus causing society to distrust him.
President Richard Nixon had excellent success in Foreign Policy. He was the first President to go to China. While In China Nixon acknowledged the Chinese form of Government then forming peace with the Chinese and opening trade with China and alsoNixon passed many bills to help Woman's rights what made his presidency demise is he lied about many things such as Lied under oath about his knowledge of the Watergate Break -ins Conspiracy to obstruct Justice(Watergate also) violated international law by Invading a Sovereign country (Cambodia)and It could be considered that he also violated the original War Powers Act
Nixon was one of the two most successful national politicians in American history. He won four national elections, twice for the vice presidency and twice for the presidency. The United States faced ongoing generalized challenges from the two main communist powers, the Soviet Union and China as well as a specific problem in Vietnam. Nixon proved more successful at dealing with the former.
Nixon was so successful because he handled the issues and problems of the U.S. thoughtfully and were he knew it would be a big benefit and turn around for the U.S. He had a demise because of how he started handling americas issues and the new person coming into office and his promises, demands and ways to fix the US made Nixon even more less popular. I think he should be remembered by he good he hs done for the U.S. and their problems and although he may had a downfall there were still many ways before his downfall as a good, promising presindent.
President Nixon was popular at the beginning of his presidency because he ended American fighting in Vietnam and improved relations with the Soviet Union and China. As Nixon's presidency went on he was involved in scandals like the "Watergate" scandal. From this he lost U.S. citizens trust. President Nixon should be remembered as a good president because he did have some success. He was just a president that made some mistakes.
Nixon is perhaps most notorious for his part in the Watergate scandal, but one of his more positive legacies was the opening up of the U.S. to trade with China. In addition, he ended the Vietnam War. He also presided over the start of the SALT II arms control talks with the USSR, in 1969.
He was very popular he was Nixon was Eisenhower's VP and everyone loved Ike. Also because after the war the American people needed someone trust and Nixon was the one they thought they should trust.
