Is it time for the left wing press to have their Walter Kronkite moment?

[tyroneweaver]

Remember after big Tet, Kronkite said that war in Vietnam was lost
Maybe it's time for the left wing rags to omit their war with Trump is lost

Yeah I think that's already omitted.

 

[BlindBoo]

Lost or stalemate.

 

[there4eyeM]

Cronkite did not say it was lost; he was much more diplomatic. He was also correct.
Anyone who had an understanding of history and the situation would never have gotten involved as we were. The only people as mistaken as the U.S. were those in North Vietnam, who failed to understand the costs and/or were too stupid to care.

After the American victory of Tet, the V.C. was finished. They were out of troops and supplies. LBJ finally won his little war but wait. Cronkite flew to Vietnam and put on a helmet and flak vest and pretended he was under fire and pronounced the end of the war to be a "stalemate". LBJ apparently believed Cronkite and tearfully told America that he would not seek reelection and the V.C. got a reprieve. The mainstream managed to grasp defeat from the jaws of victory. Can they do it again? Not with President with a set of balls like Trump.

Got their country back, didn't they?

Why would they suddenly throw up their hands and give up after the costs of fighting France and fighting Japan? That by the way comprises over a century.

Funniest historical revision since the last Lost Cause thread.

Oh yeah Rump has "balls". Can't even handle Megyn Kelly or a White House Correspondents Dinner, or the rain at a WW1 commemoration or a report on his fake magazine cover. More like ball bearings. Teeny weeny ones.

AGAIN --- it was never "ours" to "give" ANYBODY.

"South Vietnam" - "South Dakota". Know the difference.

Maybe you should go work for this guy who thinks we "GAVE" East Germany to the country that had already conquered and occupied it. He needs a propagandist. He's dying out there.

Good GOD where do summa y'all get your history hallucinations.

Vietnam was not Americas to give away. French Indochina should have been given autonomy and freedom after WWII.

We never had any jackass's on the farm; but thank you for fulfilling that void.

Disagreed

the desire for a capitalist and Catholic vietnam was just as strong as the marxists

and it was in our national interests to help them remain free
