“Imagine a world where a dementia-ridden mofo has his finger on the button......oh wait.”
One of the problems with the end of the Cold War is we forgot the most import role of the president is Commander in Chief.
Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Nixon, Ford, Carter, and H.W. Bush all saw real service.
Whatever their record as president they understood war and its costs and could be trusted with those decisions.
Since Clinton no president has served in combat, and that will cost us.
And yet the two best presidents during that time span were Reagan and Trump, both of whom presided over peace and prosperity.
