Warren G. Harding, America’s 29th president, is remembered by-and-large as one of the presidents nobody remembers. His legacy got a little more interesting, however, with last week’s release of raunchy letters to his mistress. Or, as John Oliver described them on Last Week Tonight, “smutty fuck notes.”
Oliver proceeded to read some highlights (check the New York Times for more!), such as: “Wouldn’t you like to get sopping wet out on Superior — not the lake — for the joy of fevered fondling and melted kisses?” Oh, and let’s not skip the best part, which is that Harding called his peen “Jerry.”
“You recall Jerry… He told me to say that you are the best and darlingest in the world, and if he could have but one wish, it would be to be held in your darling embrace and be thrilled by your pink lips…”
Please enjoy your sensations of cringe-y delight.
