Ike was NOTHING at all like Trump and the Korean War has really NEVER ended, since there was NO peace treaty.

Both of the Dems and GOP wanted him as their candidate, because he was such a huge "War Hero"!

His two terms in office were riddle with strikes, a recession, the COLD WAR heating up, and a growing anti-Americanism in South America...with VEEP Nixon being pelted with rocks and veggies on his trip to one of the nations there.

Trump and Reagan are the most similar.

" the Korean War has really NEVER ended, since there was NO peace treaty."

It wasn't even a War, it was a United Nations Police Action and my oldest brother was right in the middle of it with the 3rd Infantry Division. Not being a war you can't have a peace treaty.

Those weren't Ike's fault. Organized labor in the private sector was at its zenith during these years, so periodic strikes took place. Stalin and Khrushchev were the ones heating up the Cold War, and it was Communists who instigated the mob attacks on Nixon that almost took his life.

At least there was operation wetback.
