Despite having spent some years in Washington, between the House and the Senate, I believe JFK was still naive, like Trump, when it came to the government corruption that eventually killed him. Between the Bay of Pigs fiasco, and the assassination of South Vietnam's President Diem just 20 days before his own death, Kennedy's eye were opened up to the abuses of the CIA, and the other intelligence agencies...and it cost him his life.
interesting.
