I'm not talking about their politics, or corruption. I'm talking about acting just plain crazy.
Just to mention presidents and vice presidents, in the US, plenty of people hate/hated Bush, Clinton, Cheney, Nixon, Johnson, Kennedy, Barkeley, Roosevelt, Hoover... going all the way back to Washington.
But this was mostly based on their POLITICS.
Vice President Andrew Johnson made weird, drunken, rambling speeches in public, was very close to iliterate, once pulled open his pants and urinated on the floor in a crowded room in the White House while visiting Lincoln, was said to have shot a man for disputing his answer to a riddle (no verification of that), had a good, healthy personal hatred of the slaveowners but ALSO hated the slaves...
Yet when he became president and was impeached, it was over POLITICS.
Vice president Spiro Agnew was forced to resign over bribes and other corrupt acts.
How crazy does a politician have to act in public before THAT gets them in trouble?
