Trump Hammers Biden Over Troops Killed In Afghanistan Pullout

I think that in 1997 Iraq may stil have had WMDS. But when inspectors found none during Bush and Bush still attacked Iraq, well that's the probem.

Given the fact that the vietnam wr started during Eisenhower, you might want to add his name to the list. Oh yeah, don't frget that Nixon was president during the Vietnam War and:

Nixon Prolonged Vietnam War for Political Gain—And Johnson Knew About It, Newly Unclassified Tapes Suggest​

Nixon ran on a platform that opposed the Vietnam war, but to win the election, he needed the war to continue

In 1968, the Paris Peace talks, intended to put an end to the 13-year-long Vietnam War, failed because an aide working for then-Presidential candidate Richard Nixon convinced the South Vietnamese to walk away from the dealings, says a new report by the BBC’s David Taylor. By the late 1960s Americans had been involved in the Vietnam War for nearly a decade, and the ongoing conflict was an incredibly contentious issue, says PBS:

In 1967, with American troop strength in Vietnam reaching 500,000, protest against U.S. participation in the Vietnam War had grown stronger as growing numbers of Americans questioned whether the U.S. war effort could succeed or was morally justifiable. They took their protests to the streets in peace marches, demonstrations, and acts of civil disobedience. Despite the country’s polarization, the balance of American public opinion was beginning to sway toward “de-escalation” of the war.

Nixon’s Presidental campaign needed the war to continue, since Nixon was running on a platform that opposed the war. The BBC:

Nixon feared a breakthrough at the Paris Peace talks designed to find a negotiated settlement to the Vietnam war, and he knew this would derail his campaign.
… In late October 1968 there were major concessions from Hanoi which promised to allow meaningful talks to get underway in Paris – concessions that would justify Johnson calling for a complete bombing halt of North Vietnam. This was exactly what Nixon feared.

President Johnson had at the time a habit of recording all of his phone conversations, and newly released tapes from 1968 detailed that the FBI had “bugged” the telephones of the South Vietnamese ambassador and of Anna Chennault, one of Nixon’s aides. Based on the tapes, says Taylor for the BBC, we learn that in the time leading up to the Paris Peace talks, “Chennault was despatched to the South Vietnamese embassy with a clear message: the South Vietnamese government should withdraw from the talks, refuse to deal with Johnson, and if Nixon was elected, they would get a much better deal.”

Though the basic story of Nixon’s involvement in stalling the Vietnam peace talks has been around before, the new tapes, says the Atlantic Wire, describe how President Johnson knew all about the on-goings but chose not to bring them to the public’s attention: he thought that his intended successor, Hubert Humphrey, was going to beat Nixon in the upcoming election anyway.

Eventually, Nixon won by just 1 percent of the popular vote. “Once in office he escalated the war into Laos and Cambodia, with the loss of an additional 22,000 American lives, before finally settling for a peace agreement in 1973 that was within grasp in 1968,”

And when Nixon pulled the troops out of Vietnam, it was far worse than what happened in Afhganistan.

He must have forgotten the withdrawal plan was his.

Fake news dumbfuck. The plan to withdraw was on his watch. The withdrawal was on Biden's, and they botched it up.

There were no fucking WMDs and Bush knew it

~~~~~~
May true but William Jefferson Clinton thought Sadaam was hiding WMD in Iraq. If that wasn't the case, why was Billy dropping bombs on Iraq regularly.

It was Obama's & Hillary's choice of ambassador, (Chris Stevens), It was Hillary's choice in security for Stevens in a place as violatile as Benghazi.
We still don't know to this day why neither Obama nor Hillary failed to react to save Stevens and the CIA cadre in Benghazi.

..,. because stevens et al had been dead for several years before they found out.

JFK had little to do with LBJ's war in Vietnam..
We were doing well in Nam after Dien Bien Phu with small cadres of special teams to instruct South Vietnamese troops under MACV created by Eisenhower...
I remember it as JFK increasing aide and a cadre to Nam to 4,500.

Biden refused to follow the procedures set by Trump, just as he rescinded 90 of Trumps Executive Orders in his first day of Office, January 21, 2021

What "procedures" would those be?

Kennedy planned for the gradual withdrawal of troops in 63 and wanted out of Vietnam, but was assassinated later that year. This was a full year before even the gulf Gulf of Tonkin incident. It wasn't until a year after that, that the US had it's first battle with the Vietcong, a whole two years after Kennedy had died. Hard to imagine you didn't know your own president was long dead by the time you entered in the war.

He increased to 13,000 before he was murdered.

Trump paid respect to the fallen soldiers from the blown Afghan pullout at graveside today.

Why didn't he pay respect to all the fallen soldiers during his 4 years in Afghanistan?

He didn't have the balls to pull out for his entire term, kicking the can down the road and now he wants to make people belive everything would-coulda been perfect if he did it? Dupe please.
