Someone this morning was blaming it all on Goldwater.
Which makes sense, right? Remember the Goldwater campaign's infamous "Daisy" ad, which successfully painted LBJ as an irresponsible warmonger and an existential threat to humanity?
Oh, wait.
Well, it makes sense in the "Forever 1968" timeline, in which Nixon was running for his third term in '68 after stealing the election in 1960 and getting us into Vietnam. And Goldwater was running for Nixon's second term in '64...? Well, maybe it needs another timeline. Or maybe consistency is not a requirement.
