    It's not somebody else's mistakes Biden is repeating from the end of the Vietnam War, it's his own.https://twitter.com/fredbauerblog/status/1426900572465209345 …

        1973-75: Trump was a real estate guy in Queens. Obama was in high school in Hawaii. W. Bush was at Harvard Business School. Clinton was teaching law in Arkansas. Reagan & Carter were wrapping up as GOVs in CA, GA. Joe Biden was already in DC, setting disastrous foreign policy.

        Generation after generation for half a century, our national leadership class in Washington & its foreign policy/national security debates have come & gone. But one thing has stayed constant down the decades: Joe Biden is in those debates, & he is wrong about everything.

        It really feels like we’re in a crisis of confidence moment as in the 70s. Decline is a choice, where is Reagan when you need him?

        the lesson of Vietnam is that it's hard to order a man to be the last man to die for a mistake. Military leaders have exploited that dynamic to empower and benefit themselves for 20 years.

        Yes that was the mistake of Vietnam. Not spending enough money there.

        Not sure what this analogy is supposed to me, although everybody keeps using it for obvious reasons—should we, therefore, have remained in Vietnam? If so, ok, write that.
