You really believe all the same tired stuff that has been going around for decades don’t you without doing any real reading on the times and what was going on.
The Cuban Missile Crisis might not have happened if the Bay of Pigs fiasco had never happened, read up on that in detail, it’s as sordid as anything you will find.

Remember the U.S. had put offensive missiles in Turkey first which is not unlike the current war in Ukraine with the U.S. trying to have them in NATO to do the same to Russia again.

Don’t forget that Eisenhower started putting U.S. “Advisers” in Vietnam that helped start that disaster. I believe Kennedy saw that was a mistake and wanted to withdraw. But it was Johnson who escalated the war to the heights it was, not Kennedy. I also believe that Kennedy may have been thinking of dropping Johnson from the ticket, pure speculation maybe but there were rumors of it.

Lots of other information that has taken decades to come to light. You should take a look rather than cling to the old BS.

Who was in charge when the Bay of Pigs happened and the US military was ordered to stand down and not help after we had promised to do so?

Why it was President Good Hair.

Maybe rather then buying what ever some fiction writer says you should look at a calendar.

Who was it that withdrew our support for the president of Vietnam? I do believe it was President Good "I screw everything I can get to hold still" Hair who found him "morally objectionable". LBJ may have expanded it but President Good "Give me some more meth" Hair started the ball rolling.

I know you want to believe some stupid fiction about the Irish drug addict but simple facts give the lie to these fantasies.
