[@anthonygordon9483]

Or you should pay more attention to politics. The only reason he was forced to add taxes was because of his predecessor. Good old Ronnie Reagan. Reagans tax cuts were too big to be sustained. Which is why Ronald is a saint and bush was not. In a nut shell Ronnie set up Bushes failure. people basked in the glory of Ronalds tax cuts and Bush Senior had to pay the bill.

[@WatchMojo]

[@t3hpoopsmith]

I dunno man, Bush 1 was a pretty decent man and president. Sometimes circumstances change and you need to change policy. The Republican party today refuses to ever raise taxes even when it's necessary. And it's largely because of this incident. They just want to cut cut cut but then don't stop spending and always tends to increase the deficit. Bush was being responsible and rational by evaluating the situation and deciding he needed to change course. It was definitely a mistake to make such a hard line promise to begin with, but it's hardly the worst thing a president has done.

Honestly, Kennedy not sending in US military support was the right call. I think his action should be seen as heroic. Standing against the military-industrial complex.

[@PatrickJoseph-qd1or]

That was weird considering it was generally reported that they did send air support but because of a wrong time zone they arrived too late to support or rescue the dying soldier

[@PatrickJoseph-qd1or]

Actually this is not the fault of Kennedy but the CIA and the Military itself as they were the only one who were involved in the action and activity of the operation, i heard that the CIA director Allen Dulles was actually suffering from mental decline because of his age.

[@javieremoya]

Timing 👏👏👏 heroic and idealistic as a stance like that is…that was not the moment to pull a “stand against the military industrial complex” position. By refusing to send the military…the operation ended in embarrassment and emboldened Castro…who eventually had no problem bringing in Soviet missiles when the standoff over missile deployments kicked off a year later. Optimism < consequences (Similarly…Truman’s doctrine of containment at all costs was a strong position but essentially forced the Cold War into fruition for 50 years)

[@gorillaz_jbi]

Why did America fight the Vietnam war? The Vietnam war lasted 10 years and cost America 58,000 lives and over a trillion dollars(adjusted for inflation). It brought out a President, stirred social unrest, and ended in defeat. No one in hindsight believes fighting a losing war is ever worth the cost. Consequently the Vietnam War is usually written off as a colossal strategic blunder and a humanitarian disaster. Yet historical appraisals might have been much different had the Vietnam war followed the pattern of the Korean War(1950-1953), which the United States fought for almost identical reasons: the defense of freedom in Asia. The US had military advisors in Vietnam during the 1950s but didn’t become involved in a major way until 1963. President JFK firmly believed in the domino effect. The foreign policy theory that vulnerable nations without help would fall, one after another, like dominoes, to external communist aggression. JFK thus hoped to stop Soviet and Chinese backed communist invasions in a manner of President Harry S. Truman had in Korea by taking a stand in Vietnam. As with Korea, it was a war the United States did not seek, as with Korea, Vietnam presented no “imperial” advantages, no natural resources of any kind that the United States needed to protect or wish to obtain. As with Korea the aggressor was a communist government in the north intent on taking control of the south. And it’s military cross and internationally recognized in order to do so. Following JFK’s assassination in November of 1963, President Lyndon B. Johnson vastly escalated America’s role in 1964. But even as he did so Johnson prosecuted the war with deep ambivalence. Authorizing significantly more troops and money for the war but never pushing for total victory. In contrast the north Vietnamese never wavered. They ignored every one of Johnson’s many offers to negotiate a settlement. By 1971, the war was at a stalemate. Neither side able to establish a clear advantage. The President Richard Nixon pursued a two prong strategy. To turn over combat operations to the south Vietnamese and to bomb north Vietnam. The effort brought the communist to Paris Peace Talks and by 1973 the North agreed to a general settlement. Establishing two autonomous Vietnamese nations. One communist, one non-communist in the manner of North and South Korea. However the watergate scandal, the subsequent resignation of President Nixon, and the democrats sweeping congressional victory in the 1974 midterm election, all helped to convince the North Vietnamese that America would not enforce the peace agreement. They were right. Without US air support and material aid the South Vietnamese had no chance against the North. Well supplied by the Soviet Union, the Chinese, the communist gained full control of the country in April 1975. The war proved far more costly than Korea because the geography and landscapes of Vietnam were far more conducive during operation. There were also far more restrictions placed on American commanders and during the Korean War. The United States in the 1960s was a far less conservative and cohesive country than America in the 1950s. Yet despite the long ordeal and terrible cost, South Vietnam was saved in 1973 only to be lost in 1975. The US defeat in Vietnam was a POLITICAL choice. Not a military necessity. Had the US protected an independent but vulnerable South Vietnam in 1973 and 1974, that country would have most likely followed the model of South Korea. Millions of southeast Asians would not have become Boat people, and refugees, or been sent to the gulags and re-education camps. A viable US backed democratic Vietnam would have stabilized the region and almost certainly prevented the neighboring Cambodian genocide in which one-fifth of that country, 2 million people were slaughtered by its communist leadership. And much of the bitterness over the war on both sides of the American political spectrum still with us today would have vanished. And for the communist Vietnamese, the instigators and aggressors of the terrible conflict, what was it all for? Today ironically the Vietnamese government aspires to nothing more than the capitalist affluence. That it once reviled.

I agree. He really *was* a very ineffective and shortsighted president, but I don’t see why he always secures the #1 spot as Worst President Ever. I think Andrew Johnson was really the worst one we ever had (prior to 2016), but I also think Warren Harding and Franklin Pierce lay some claim to the title as well. So we’ve already got four candidates for whom you could make a good argument that they were the worst. So I don’t see why Buchanan *always* gets selected as the #1 Worst Ever. But that’s only the worst ever prior to 2016, anyway. It is indisputable that Donald Trump was the worst President in all of American history.

I would argue that John Adams was still one of our greatest presidents, and probably our greatest founding father. He was the only one who vocally opposed slavery and never owned a slave himself, despite being a rich person with the capacity to do so. He was also trying to preserve the newborn America too, and while he may not have had the finesse that Abraham Lincoln had when going full authoritarian, he still probably had good intentions with the alien and sedition acts.

@@TheAeroAvatar It’s not true that falsification is a felony it’s a misdemeanor they concocted it into a felony by saying it was in concealing another crime including unlawful means it was even known in the DA’s office as the “Zombie Case”. Of course the unlawful means were not ever specified to one and one of the options presented right before closing arguments was federal campaign crimes the federal prosecutors refused to prosecute and the judge refused to let an expert witness testify that the payments were not campaign related under federal law.

You forgot some from recently... In 2013, the Obama administration was caught in the ATF operation fast and furious gun walking scandal where they let dozens of firearms "walk" or be allowed to be crossed into Mexico in an effort to catch the criminals red handed. One of those firearms was later used to kill a Border Patrol agent. Also, during this who scandal, Eric Holder, was the first U.S. Attorney General who was held in contempt of court due to this. Let's not forget that during this whole time, Obama was pushing Congress to ban said guns his administration allowed to be crossed into Mexico. Another scandal. The IRS scandal of 2013. Many conservatives and right wing organizations where were delayed tax exempt status, even religious organizations because they voiced their opposition to Obama. It turned out that they were a lot of audits carried out just to get these people delayed Tax Exempt status or was seen as "harassment". And lastly, the vast drone strikes in Yemen and Pakistan without Congress auth that killed American citizens and civilians alike without due process.
