    Nixon made the case to the American people by talking to them intelligently as adults - something that no other President since had the ability to do, least of all the current clown in office - as a result, Nixon won re-election and did indeed end the Vietnam war.

      Nixon dragged out the withdrawal from Southeast Asia into his second term for pure political expediency. Further, the military conducted both air and ground operations in Cambodia against the NVA for year prior to this speech, and the pointless bombing continued late into August 1973. Nixon lied to the American public about the true nature of the war and our involvement in it. Moreover, unless you can reply with some convincing evidence by way of reference or link to establish your assertion that Biden’s conduct of our assistance to Ukraine isn’t above board, I’m going to assume you’re just talking out of your ass like every other sub-cretinous Trumpscab imbecile

      People in general were more intelligent back then. Nowadays you gotta speak to an audience like they have a 6th grade education. All that to say, while this all sounds smart, he’s leaving A LOT on the table and like Eisenhower, Kennedy, and Johnson, he was extremely dishonest about actions that widened the war in Vietnam like bombing Cambodia.

      He didn't "widen" the war; the Viet-Cong and N. Vietnamese were already in Cambodia.... They were also in Laos as well. He simply responded to the aggression of the NVA to prevent them from sending men and material into S. Vietnam from those two countries. @@S0nyToprano

    Had Johnson did a couple of years before that ( clean out the sanctuary ) the war outcome would be far more different

      Maybe not getting involved with a civil war to begin with.

    • @pneulancer
      @pneulancer Před 5 měsíci

      Because it would've prevented the North Vietnamese from funneling troops and weapons to the Viet Cong in South Vietnam. Also would have to do that in Laos as well.. ...That being said; the U.S. had no business being in South East Asia in the first place as the area was never of vital interest to them. @@cubsfan1622000

      ​@GymMusic-xq4nu it was a cold war proxy war and civil war, like Korea and elsewhere. Do some research .

    The Kent State student protests where “Four Died in Ohio” occurred a few days after Nixon announced he was expanding the war to Cambodia.

      Nixson -Demons in the Vietnam War. Suddenly going to Vietnam to kill people. You are from a country considered civilized, why did you come to Vietnam
      It's a shame that peace-loving Americans oppose the Vietnam War
      North Vietnam We fought the Khmer Rouge army for independence for the Cambodian people
      Nixon -Ác quỷ trong chiến tranh Việt Nam. Ngang nhiên sang Việt Nam giết người. Bạn đến từ một đất nước được coi là văn minh, tại sao bạn lại đến Việt Nam?Thật xấu hổ khi những người Mỹ yêu chuộng hòa bình phản đối chiến tranh Việt Nam
      Bắc Việt nam Chúng tôi đã chiến đấu với đội quân Khơmer đỏ dành độc lập cho dân Campuchia
