Jimmy Carter, Nixon and Eisenhower didn't start new wars.

(639 posts)His dad was damn lucky this trade wars, insults and generally ignorance of diplomacy didn't start another one.
Most world leaders, would have avoided a conflict knowing it was Trump, -even N Korea had enough smarts not to provoke the man-child with a button.
