McGovern made a nomination run in the 1968 presidential election as a stand-in for the assassinated Robert F. Kennedy. He fizzled. Humphrey did indeed win the nomination. I didn’t say otherwise. In 1972 Nixon cheated.
No, one person does not. But add in the Supreme Court rulings, state legislatures new laws, and all you MAGA tRumpsters whose fearless leader is taking you to the new “Unified Reich”.
McGovern fizzled. The Democrats were toast after the 1968 convention in Chicago. Nixon used Vietnam to get elected and re-elected, and was then forced to the peace talks by Americans opposed to the war. The draft was ended due to the protests. Nixon drew down troops in 1969, and by 150,000 in 1970. ‘Vietnamization’, turning the military operations over to the South Vietnamese government was Nixon’s plan. The Paris Peace Accords were to bring a cease fire that Nixon warned the U.S. would re-engage if the North invaded. Congress passed a law prohibiting any such plan. Many politicians opposed the war driven by their constituents. While our military failed to maintain discipline or effectiveness, the U.S. did negotiate our involvement out of Vietnam. All brought on by Americans opposing the war.
The Saudis announced in February of 2021 that they were raising oil prices to recoup the 40% loss in profit due to COVID-19 in 2020, other businesses followed suit making the world wide inflation we have now. Biden brought us out of tRump’s recession, and has kept U.S. inflation lower than most of the rest of the world.
Record time coming out of tRump’s recession, record low unemployment, record high working, record new jobs created, record new manufacturing, keeping the world-wide Saudi created inflation lower than the rest of the free world, and now down to 3.2%, wages outpacing inflation, and all the while putting out the dumpster fire made by tRump and his supporters. We still have the lowest rate of inflation in the free world.
