  1. "One hundred thirty-five years ago today, #GroverCleveland was elected to his first term as #President of the #UnitedStates (his inauguration can be seen in the photo above). But #Cleveland’s election to the #presidency this time was not what made him notable. No, it was his #reelection in 1892 for which he is remembered in the #history books. You see, Grover Cleveland would go on to lose the 1888 election, and then be reelected four years later, joking that he had come back to win the office again on his “third try.”

    But for our purposes, it was Grover Cleveland’s friendship to the #Jewish people that is especially noteworthy."

  4. Book Review #5 for 2025 is Troy Senik's A Man of Iron: The Turbulent Life and Improbable Presidency of Grover Cleveland. A fair and readable treatment of the first US President who was the first elected to two non-consecutive terms. What strikes me, juxtaposed against the turbulence of current policy, was the move to professionalize the Civil Service

  5. CW: USPol, Trump - Cleveland

    Them: I know of Grover Cleveland, Trump is no Grover Cleveland.
    Me: Cleveland married a 21 year old while he was in his late 40s whom he had groomed as he was legally her guardian for a while. As President he opposed federal voting rights laws, sent troops to put down striking workers, signed anti-immigration laws, and was non-interventionist while wanting to put troops closer to our borders.
    Them: Okay, maybe Trump is like Grover Cleveland.
