We should have declared war after they sank the Housatonic. Reagan would have.

I rather doubt that.

Reagan would have given ONE warning, after the Lusitania (1915) and I bet we would have been in the war the next year, because the Germans had no intention of heeding any warnings.

We should have staye dout of WW1.

The Brits, French and Germans were perfectly capable of killing each othe roff without any help from us. They had been practising for centuries.

WW1 was the U.S.’ first involvement in “foreign entaglements” George Washington had warned us against.
