> Nixon
Straight lines and shapes, just like all us autists drew back in school. He'd be on /pol/ if he were born a generation later.
> Hoover:
Complex abstract art. Made decisions based on a very rigid set of values, which sometimes did well and sometimes did badly.
> Harding:
Product of his time. Art Deco was a symbol of America's rise to greatness - fast-paced, modern, very similar with the Futurists in Europe.
> Johnson:
There's some weird shit going on there. He used to make conversation at the urinal. Not saying anything sinister, but at the least he's a weirdo that got used to push some very bad laws.
> Roosevelt
Can't really draw, but wholesome material. Man's man.
> Obama
"Look at me, I draw just like the New Yorker!"
Basically a homunculus used as a vehicle by the DNC. No sincere or deeply-held values, just does what his betters tell him. The archetypal post-2008 liberal.
> Hayes
Only one doodle, can't say much. I think they were reaching for material.
> Reagan
Cowboys, horses, football players. He gets a bad rap here, but the man was descending into dementia while facing the real possibility that he'd be responsible for a nuclear apocalypse, and every rat in government was whispering in his ear meanwhile. He's what your good-natured dad or grandpa would've been as president if he were elected when Reagan was.
> Eisenhower
Most realistic drawings, generally masculine, normal material. I think he genuinely had some kind of vision for America, and, at the time, it might've seemed plausible. It's easy to criticize terrible decisions in hindsight, with full knowledge of the situation. Very much a tragic figure who could've been different if he were born later, and could see how the world turned out. Like many other WWII generals, he'd have fought for the good guys if he knew.
Also, funny how nobody has made a "Biden draw a clock" joke yet where I've seen this.
