What is the single most immoral thing proven to be done by a U.S. president?
Occupants of the White House have conducted MANY massive immoral acts.Andrew Jackson acting in the trail of tears resulting in the brutal deaths of 600,000 native AmericansFDR - refusing to open America’s doors to European Jewry as a place of refuge and then refusing to disrupt the mechanics of the Holocaust - when he was directly aware and informed of it. He sealed the fate of six million Jews who were murdered when he had the power to have saved them all. All the while USING prominent Jews in his administration and for the Nation for his own purposes… Samuel Rosenman, a Lawyer and Judge was his speechwriter - he coined the term “New Deal”, he offered refuge for Jewish Nuclear Scientists so America could USE them to create the Atomic Bomb and denied it to millions of other Jews…FDR again for how he maltreated Japanese Americans and their property by an illegal executive order.FDR for using secret military tribunals not American Courts to try enemy combatants during WWII…GW Bush - who lied his ass off to send America to war against Iraq illegally and kill thousands of Americans and hundreds of thousands of Iraqis for no reason what so ever…Obama with his drone strikes killing innocent people is hardly free of blood on his hands.Trumps every day immorality he is an immoral being and he has no morals what so ever, a disgusting excuse for a man in thousands of examples in a record short period of time. Imagine any US President talking about the size of his penis - well this scum did. America’s CALIGULA…When I say a disgusting excuse for a man, I mean what I say.Other infidelities… but these are personal moral failures… that did not affect the nation… still far from leadership by example.Presidents who were also Framers of the constitution and amendments denying the right to vote to Women, allowing Slavery, screwing up the wording of the second amendment… The origins of America were hardly on a solid moral foundation. Yes Even Jefferson left much to be desired.I do NOT fault Truman for dropping the Atomic Bomb on Japan - I fully support his decision and the relative morality of doing so.

What things is Texas well known for?
If you go (almost) anywhere in the world, people know Texas. The same can possibly be said for California or New York (although people would think of the city), but not many other states in the USA. Some people even think it is its own country (and many Texans want it to be!). When Texans introduce themselves, they often say they are from Texas first, clarifying “America” second. It’s the largest state in the contiguous U.S. and also boasts that many things are “just bigger in Texas.” So firstly, Texas is most famous for its state pride (and no, it’s not a bad thing).Secondly, Texas in known for two things of the same name, which go hand-in-hand: cowboys/Cowboys. Texas is well known for the Dallas Cowboys football team, which was once called “America’s Team” as well as the horse-riding, ten gallon hat-wearing cowboys. The cowboy culture is still part of Texan ethos, where people are down-to-earth, simple (in a good way), rugged, and friendly (Texas actually means “friend”). Alongside cowboy culture, country music and rodeo are also famous Texas things.Lastly, Texas is known for its large role and aptitude in the energy industry. Oil and natural gas has been a large part of the Texas economy for a while, and exports much of that knowledge all over the world on energy exploration projects.
