Eisenhower reached the end of his tether with Nixon on several occasions, even before they were first elected in 1952.

That makes sense. It was Prescott Bush (George HW Bush's father) who choose Nixon to be Ike's running mate, not Ike.

Indeed, that would help explain it.  Eisenhower considered Nixon something of a liability right from the start.  Especially after the slush fund 'scandal' that hit Nixon and threatened their campaign.

Then eight years later...
