after Hiroshima, he warned that if Japanese leaders would not accept U.S. terms of surrender, “they may expect a rain of ruin from the air, the like of which has never been seen on this earth." (As if Hiroshima hadn't already done that.)

So it took some time for the full impact of the Bomb to be realized by the Japanese central government. It could be argued that in time they would have realized any further resistance was futile, and that the attack on Nagasaki wasn't needed to convince the Japanese to surrender, had Truman waited longer.

just as he "borrowed" the slogan "Make America Great Again" from Reagan.

He's too lazy to come up with anything original, plus he just can't help but steal. Not to mention that he likes to borrow and then pretend he didn't.

Wait til you see him leading crowds chanting this. Maybe even saluting in a purely patriotic passion.

'Cause that's what I thought when I heard that stoopid line. It sounds like a b tv writer coughed it up.
