To be fair to Teddy Roosevelt the guy risked his neck constantly
Resigned as Asst. Sec of Navy to fight on frontline of Spanish war
In 1912 election was shot but kept speaking
Lobbied Congress to let him fight in WW1 when he was 58 years old
War monger? Sure. Coward? Def not
Indeed diversion to explain their political impotence
What Trump said about negotiation is true
War is easy:
🪖 compel other peoples kids to kill other peoples kids.
Peace is highly complex & intricate
Lincoln’s complicity & his cabinet’s self dealing is historical record

Reading Teddy Roosevelt's biography was eye-opening where he was depressed about not having a great war to be remembered for. Probably every President dreams of that when they get into office. Who wouldn't want to be a hailed as a war hero without risking their neck?
