    Historians now think that the Brits did not send an escort for the Lusitania in the hopes that the Krauts would sink it and piss us? off so we would enter the Great War.

    FDR let Pearl Harbor happen.

    The Gulf of Tonkin did not happen, but LBJ wanted war.

    Bush Knew!

    Obama played golf

    So, given all that, would you rather your President golfed or faked attacks so we go to war?

    With Trump, we get abundance!

    Brit's plan certainly failed though; took us another 2 years to declare war on the krauts and another 1 after that before we had enough boots on the ground to alter the outcome. The world likely would be a different place had we come in earlier in 1915.
    how so?

    US coming in on allied side in 1915 would have been more than Central Powers could have handled. War ends in 1916 probably with a negotiated peace settlement. Germany has to make some concessions, but nothing like the humiliation at Versailles, so no Hitler. Russia is part of victorious allied coalition and therefore no Bolshevik Revolution.

    But how was Woodrow Wilson a bad President?

    His first act was to make the Civil Service jobs in DC whites only. And he was in the progressive party.

    Democrats. What are you gonna do
