In 1965 LBJ decided to go somewhat in, in Vietnam. Not all in, you see, because that would be the wrong signal.
He took over targeting for the US Air Force, and the US Navy because as a politician he UNDERSTOOD what it took to make a deal and close it.
How to bargain.
How gain.
How to create win win.
He had done it across 2 generations of deal making with other politicians and people like George Meany of the United Mine Workers Union.
And then he met Ho Chi Minh.
He did not understand Ho Chi Minh, or any of the North Viet Communists.
LBJ never understood who Ho was and what Ho wanted. B Obama has no idea what the hell is REALLY doing in foreign policy.
NONE.
I question if Trump REALLY does.
And THIS is a major concern for me.

Donald Trump’s REAL weakness
In 1965 LBJ decided to go somewhat in, in Vietnam. Not all in, you see, because that would be the wrong signal.
He took over targeting for the US Air Force, and the US Navy because as a politician he UNDERSTOOD what it took to make a deal and close it.
How to bargain.
How gain.
How to create win win.
He had done it across 2 generations of deal making with other politicians and people like George Meany of the United Mine Workers Union.
And then he met Ho Chi Minh.
He did not understand Ho Chi Minh, or any of the North Viet Communists.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has been a longtime supporter of a deal allowing Iran to obtain nuclear fuel. He was very skeptical that President Barack Obama could negotiate such a deal — and he worried that Obama would start a war with Iran to win a second presidential term.Vlad Putin, the Chinese, Teheran … these are not going to be business deals, nor can we deal with these people as if they are US. There will be currency issues, sure, and there will be MANY trade issues. but the bulk of our dealings with these people with be in FORCE, threatened, used, unused but always visible force.
In December 2011, Trump criticized Obama for not negotiating fast enough with Iran and for allowing Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to be treated in an insufficiently dignified manner when the then-Iranian president spoke at Columbia University in New York City.
At the time, Trump also declared that he was deeply worried that Obama would go to war with Iran in an effort to win re-election in 2012. Obama “would” start a war with Iran because, “look, nobody’s even talking to Iran,” Trump told Blitzer on CNN on Dec. 8, 2011. Trump further suggested that Iranians could have good, trustworthy intentions or could be wholly diabolical. He said he just didn’t know.“Now, maybe they’re the evil empire, maybe they’re the bad people, and maybe they’re not,” Trump told Blitzer on CNN.
