Famous for being President during World War One and conceiving the League of Nations. I've noticed a lot of people don't seem to like Wilson 
Perhaps !nonchuds hate him for racism? 
Maybe !chuds hate him for prototypical globohomo viewpoints? 
What does the educated dramanaut think? 
!historychads discuss
Is it really dramatic? Then just put it in the main feed.
Is it chuddy? (Be honest.) Then /h/chudrama.
Is it from back in old boomer times or before?
This is the place for it.
Feel free to talk about history here at
whatever level of seriousness you feel like.

They were caught trying to get Mexico to invade us. That was incredibly r-slurred but it was a real thing. Wilson was forced into it by the Germans.

Harding didn't ban alcohol though (POCs, people of Congress, passed the 18th and the Volstead Act while Wilson was in charge) and in Wilson's defense, he was pretty much a vegetable by 1920 with his wife running the show.

came into force 
under 
a president 
known to drink 
a bottle 
a day.

Wilson suffered from a severe stroke in 1919 and was rendered unable to communicate on his last year as President. So Mrs. Wilson locked him up and arranged "meetings" with him acting as if she was some intermediary but in true she became the government's caretaker. It's probably one of the reasons why the 25th amendment became a thing.
