Ashley Wright (Herbert)’s Reviews > Henry Clay: The Essential American > Status Update

Calhoun freely confessed, "I don't like Henry Clay." He was a "bad man, an impostor, a creator of wicked schemes." Calhoun swore he "wouldn't speak to" Clay. "But, by God," Calhoun blurted out in the same breath, "I love him."
The Great Triumvirate was in love your honor.

"Clay's victory, chortled one, would likely kill Jackson, or at least irritate Old Hickory's famous and chronic digestive problems. 'His diarrhea will be brought on,' went the joke. " is a sentence I never expected to read.

The Jackson Clay drama is too good

Thank God the war of 1812 is over 🙏
