President McKinley just looks like that asshole who would fire you right before you retire. He joined the Union Army at the age of 18 and served under future president Rutherford B. Hayes. When the battleship Maine was destroyed off the coast of Cuba, the Spanish-American War broke out and within months, we beat the shit out of Spain’s navy, giving the United States control of Cuba, the Philippine Islands, and Puerto Rico, three nations that are not oil-rich nations, sooo … yeah. His wife hated the color yellow so much that she had anything in the White House yellow, removed. Six months into his presidency, he was shot and killed by anarchist Leon Czolgosz at the Temple of Music in Buffalo, NY. The crowd grabbed Leon and beat the shit out of him as the president was whisked away in an ambulance. McKinley’s face is on the $500 bill, something I have never seen in person.
