JFK - an elegant, educated, articulate man, with at least some political experience, some military experience, deep family feeling, and an undeniable love for his country - must be flipping in his grave at the comparison.
That captured this nonsense thread very accurately.
JFK had some pretty good advisors outside of McNamara, Trump has no one anymore.

The left wouldn't elect him dog catcher today and you know it. He isn't extreme enough. His "ask not what your nation can do for you, but what you can do for your nation," would have sent today's left rioting in the streets.
Be honest.
Remember Gary Hart? He didn't have 1/10th the baggage of Biden and he was stopped cold for it.

In short, it is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high today and tax revenues are too low and the soundest way to raise the revenues in the long run is to cut the rates now. The experience of a number of European countries and Japan have borne this out. This country's own experience with tax reduction in 1954 has borne this out.
And the reason is that only full employment can balance the budget, and tax reduction can pave the way to that employment. The purpose of cutting taxes now is not to incur a budget deficit, but to achieve the more prosperous, expanding economy which can bring a budget surplus.

He most certainly would if compared to the democrat party of today !!!
