Johnson was a such a defeated and sad man at the end. He wanted out. Could not run again after being betrayed by his advisors and cabinet and realizing there was no winning the war unless by bombing VN to the Stone Age. Johnson grew his hair long and essentially exiled himself to his Texas ranch.

I wonder if Nixon was sober when he had that call to him. Anyway tricky dick got his. Reagan’s legacy is an “amiable dunce”. Gore had decent people and obviously Bill Clinton did not do all he could to make the election fair ( and really who knew W would invade based on prevarication). Trump is just in it for monetary gain, to pay back Putin for helping him out of his bankruptcies, and of course the limos, the sec serv agents—he has no idea how to wield the power of the office, that’s for Miller, Bannon, Manafort, Flynn, and Eastman. It would be nice if Garland could be replaced or just grow a pair. I don’t expect an Oct surprise. I expect trump to self destruct like he did in 2020 w his scary debates. It would be nice if he got convicted before the election —in one of the trials.
Mitch, here is a thing I am pondering as a Vietnam Vet.
The Chinese Communist and Russian ally were sending tens of thousands of tons of military supplies through Haiphong Harbor throughout the conflict. Americans apparently dropped 20,000 tons of bombs on the harbor.
That is nothing to sneeze at, but the harbor was never shut down and remained active non-stop. Comparatively an estimated 45,517 tons of bombs were dropped on Berlin during World War II.
I don’t have any love of war then or now, but one has to wonder why we allowed the North to have the means to wage war for over 10 years w/ supplies from Communist China and Russia?
