Isn't it strange how all these recent mega-disasters, like the Great Depression, the Korean and Vietnam Wars, Iran-Contra, the Iraq War, 9/11, the Great Recession, the Coronavirus, all happened under Republican presidents? (The World Wars were out of our control. Exception: the Iranian Revolution.)
A coincidence?

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.The Korean War began under Truman. The Vietnam War, Kennedy and Johnson. The World Wars were out of our control until we jumped in.

France left Indochina in 1954, and Eisenhower ordered continued support for south Vietnamese. He then dumped it in the lap of Kennedy, who might've been (but probably wasn't) assassinated for wanting to get us out
I wanted to expunge Korea but couldn't figure out how.
Woodrow Wilson TRIED to keep us out of WWI, but Germany kept sinking American ships.
We all know about WWII.
It seems to me Democrats are more peaceful, conciliatory and collaborative; Republicans more belligerant and confrontational. That was my point.
I think a legitimate one.
That must lead to other connections but forgive me if my brain's a little fatigued at the moment.
