The book was referenced for a passage that was read out loud, detailing Nixon's personality and a question about his potential with love and affection.
Despite all his global FaceTime, Nixon was a solitary, awkward, reclusive man. Kissinger, who could not bring himself to say that he was fond of the president, once famously asked, 'Can you imagine what this man would have been had somebody loved him?'

Nixon's only true friend was Bebe Rebozo, a Florida banker. He said, 'It doesn't come natural to me to be a buddy-buddy boy.'
