Ulysses S. Grant: The Butcher on the Battlefield… The Mouse in the House

About this episode

He arrived at the White House without experience or a clue… But that didn’t stop Grant from secretly doubling his salary and accepting extravagant gifts from Wall Street. Meanwhile, his administration extorted, bribed, and stole millions of tax dollars away from Americans living through a depression they basically caused. And still, people said a more honest, generous man never lived.    Very Presidential is presented by audiochuck. • Instagram: @audiochuck • Twitter:  @audiochuck • Facebook: /audiochuckllc   Very Presidential is hosted by Ashley Flowers. • Instagram: @ashleyflowers • TikTok: @ashleyflowerscrimejunkie • Twitter: @Ash_Flowers • Facebook: /AshleyFlowers.AF Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
