Chapter 1265 Stealing Home
Even though he knows that the situation is very unfavorable, McCarthy still wants to fight for the presidency, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he can accept that he won’t be elected, but it would be a shame to give it up without a word.
From Alan Wilson’s point of view, it’s very simple: he’s happy to see his friend move to a higher position, and has always helped him to do so.
Whether or not he’s the good guy people think he is doesn’t matter. McCarthy’s increased influence made it easier for Allen Wilson to communicate with him.
Far away in Washington, McCarthy received encouragement from his friend and could not help saying to his own wife, “I don’t know whether the special Anglo-American relations are all smooth sailing, but this English friend is genuine.”
“Joseph, you are indeed right.” Mrs. McCarthy was not speaking kindly because of the royalties of the Master of Conspiracy Theory in the United States, though there was part of that reason, but it was chiefly the image that Alan Wilson had been building up that was at work, and if she had known of the saying that there is a gentleman’s friend who is a gentleman’s friend, she would have used it in Alan Wilson’s case.
Allen Wilson, if he heard his wife’s words, must have been very touched, which shows that his work is worthwhile, time to go to the sixties where there is still a special relationship between Britain and the United States. The fact that an American political family could now mention the word showed that Britain’s strength was still quite recognized.
As far as he could remember, at this point in time, in 1964, except for the negotiations on the prohibition of nuclear weapons testing, Britain was hardly ever at the same negotiating table as the United States and the Soviet Union at the same time. Negotiations on banning nuclear weapons testing had Britain, thanks to the fact that the hydrogen bombs of China and France had not yet succeeded for the time being.
Now that I think about it, it seems that the first atomic bomb of one of the major powers was detonated this year, so don’t underestimate the fact that you can’t be threatened with nuclear weapons, even if you can’t actually reach the United States.
The one consolation for the United States is that JFK’s words proved his credibility, and as long as he was president, a major country really didn’t have an atomic bomb.
The Republican candidate was clearly a wolf pack, more than the Democrat Lyndon Johnson, who was a popular choice, and all the lords had to come up and try, just in case they could get political mileage out of it. On the South Vietnam issue, the rhetoric was out of line, and there was a saying that really fit the Republican candidates, “Fight early, fight big, fight nuclear war.”
From New Hampshire to Oklahoma, from Kentucky to Ohio, Republican candidates, including but not limited to McCarthy, were making bellicose statements. On March 20, Barry Goldwater spoke with public accusations that “Secretary of Defense McNamara and the State Department are unilaterally reducing armaments.”
Just a day later, McCarthy claimed that with the current defense leadership completely ignoring new weapons, U.S. nuclear capability could decline by ninety percent over the next decade.
Analyzing with the help of his best friend, Britain’s supreme authority, McCarthy also noted the loosening of the traditionally Democratic iron-clad Southern base in the Southern states during the Kennedy years.
The Democratic Party’s unassailable Southern dominance had been established after the Civil War and, after nearly a century, had never really been shaken by the Republicans.
More than half a century after the end of the Civil War, the Democrats were weaker, but at least a lot of people in the South supported him, so that the Democrats survived and did not hang up early like those small parties that used to be in a deadly struggle with the Republicans.
Now that the Democrats are clearly taking advantage of Kennedy’s death to realign, McCarthy should travel to the southern states to garner support from white southerners. This is the only way to salvage some of the decline, and if he can make a historic breakthrough in the Democratic iron plate, McCarthy will certainly leave a colorful mark in the history of the Republican Party.
McCarthy is not without his wise men, facing the overwhelming advantage of the Democrats, in the McCarthy put his best friend’s point of view out, achieved the majority of the wise men’s approval. The odds were just not in his favor anyway, and he should try to see if he could steal home from the Democrats’ southern base.
McCarthy made up his mind, and while calling for a tough response to the situation in South Vietnam, he took off straight for the southern states to steal home, and today he is a Dixiecrat.
The recent exchange with McCarthy had found a long-lost joy in Allen Wilson, and the whole man was refreshed; McCarthy had told him that the first rally in Louisiana had been quite successful, and he hadn’t even imagined that he’d been so well received.
“See how happy it makes you.” Pamela Mountbatten, who had just returned to see her husband at home and put on her head-of-the-household act couldn’t help but open her mouth to taunt, “You’d be better off as an advisor to McCarthy.”
“The vast majority of my talents are still to be placed on my own country.” Alan Wilson pulled his wife’s veiled hand with a good face, “Honey, only when you come back can I feel the warmth of home. You don’t know the unsettled, lonely heart I felt when you were in Perth.”
“Margaret is all pregnant.” Pamela Mountbatten poked at the man’s lie, “Are you trying to say that it’s all my fault that I wasn’t in London and your lonely heart was warmed by the princess?”
“It’s no fun to talk like that.” Alan Wilson’s face cleared up, obviously tired of the occasional hammering, seeing this Pamela Mountbatten dared not breathe a word, did not strain to whisper, “I’m just saying, I’m a lawful wife can’t even complain?”
“Give me the bar tongue out, let me see if it is listening to the words of the husband.” Alan Wilson viciously attacked towards the red lips, muttering under his breath, “Did you grow up and think you can talk loudly to men?”
Today, the family law must be implemented, he realized that he should have struck hard a long time ago, otherwise the female president is always endlessly muttering, and while striking hard, he opened the discourse to make Pamela Mountbatten realize the mistake.
The two have no major contradictions, Xiaoyi reasoning and moving to open the words on the good, in the years to come, the husband and wife have to support each other, hand in hand.
“There won’t be another woman who loves you more than me, and you need to be clear about that.” Pamela Mountbatten washed down her complaints by the manned spaceflight, but was still reminding the man that you’re a family man.
“I’ve never had any doubt about that. Meanwhile my possessiveness of you is still growing with time.” Securing his wife’s body in his arms, Alan Wilson said in a single word, “In fact you, my dear, understand very well that my interest in politics far exceeds that of all women except you. Do you agree with that.”
“I know, as evidenced by your focus on McCarthy.” Again, Pamela Mountbatten couldn’t help but think her husband was right, “It’s all starting to come out for him.”
“But it’s not just for him, I’ve submitted the changing social attitudes in the US, the implications for the election. And handed it to the Prime Minister.” To set up a persona well, it can not be helped, Alan Wilson to establish the authority of the Cabinet Secretary to prove to the Cabinet, this time the two parties to steal each other’s home to start, can be said to determine the direction of the next few decades.
At this time, Aidan, really looking at this report, in which Alan Wilson swore that because of the black issue, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party are turning to each other, a short period of time, this turn is favorable to the Republican Party, because the United States white community is, after all, the vast majority.
As for the farther future, Aidan didn’t need to know, and Alan Wilson didn’t need to say.
But applied to Britain, the enlightenment is only one. The native minorities must never be allowed to form a force that shapes the direction of society, or a similar problem in Britain is just a matter of time.
The results of this election will be evidence of this report by then, more than the action on the Republican side, Lyndon Johnson, who thinks he is winning, is also discussing the Vietnam issue, except that he will no longer discuss it in public, and the Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff Conference, Maxwell Taylor, arrives at the White House to expound on the gravity of the Vietnam issue, and at the same time, wants to get a promise here in Lyndon Johnson that the current administration can truly defend the prosperity of the free world.
“Supporters of air strikes in the Air Force and the Navy believed that bombing would be enormously effective, but they did not accurately estimate the effects of air strikes in particular situations. The Army and Marine Corps found it difficult to mount an effective counterattack against the guerrillas. All seriously underestimated Hanoi’s determination, endurance, and ability to reinforce and strengthen Viet Cong forces in the South.”
In front of Lyndon Johnson, Maxwell Taylor pulled out the Pentagon’s decision with a grimace, “Since the formation of the Kennedy administration, we have always regarded political stability as the fundamental premise of our Vietnam policy. Now this can no longer be done. South Vietnam can’t resist an attack from the north, and the loss of the Central South Peninsula will give the Soviet Union absolute dominance in Eurasia, and even our European allies will be shaken if we sit back and do nothing.”
“My General.” Lyndon Johnson said Maxwell Taylor’s rank directly, “You should know that most voters don’t like war, and there’s still a few months to go before the election. Can’t you wait it out? Can’t you wait until after I’m re-elected to make the push? I can’t be like McCarthy and the rest of them, clamoring for the unabashed use of nuclear weapons.”
“Mr. President, most people think that you will make a wise judgment.” Maxwell Taylor slowed his tone, then said, “We don’t understand what you’re waiting for.”
“Waiting for a reply from Moscow about confirming Iran’s neutrality.” Lyndon Johnson suddenly asked rhetorically at this point, “Do you want to fight the Soviet Army somewhere else, like Iran?”
Maxwell Taylor was dumbfounded by the question, of course he didn’t want to, that was really playing with his life, but Lyndon Johnson also left wiggle room with that statement, indicating that the United States would push back hard against this round of threats, and that Maxwell Taylor hadn’t come all the way here for nothing.
