Putting modern politics in context of American History for some reason is a little more comforting. Thank you Mr. Terry.
History always feels more comforting than the present or future, even if it was awful, simply because it’s a known entity
Mr. Terry’s videos are always comforting
Politics is just modern history
I just came here from the recent Vlogging Through History video and I recommend each and every single one you to watch it. Chris worded everything about this perfectly and we need to be respectful and responsible of our words.
I too watched VTH first. And agree with your statement about his wording.
He really said valid things.
Fun fact, the man who shot Regan is out of prison and now has relatively unpopular blue grass band
I knew he was out of prison but was completely unaware of the bluegrass band, that’s interesting.
he has a RUclips channel by the same name John Hinckly Jr.
@@SomeOrdinaryJanitor really? I gotta dig into this lol, I’m intrigued
Is any bluegrass not relatively unpopular?
artOVtrolling
Dueling Banjos.
the reagan assassin became obsessed with foster through the film taxi driver and he in his delusion thought killing a president would impress her as the main character tries to assassinate a presidental canidate in the movie
Jody has that fivehead!
I think the the craziest is that guy has been out of prison like a decade now and became a moderately successful musician
@@BlandSpagettiI mean in all of history how many people can say they tried to kill the leader of a major world power and failed, and lived and moved on to a free life eventually. Crazy
@richardwallis9374 He successfully used an insanity defense, but unlike the guy who killed Garfield actually succeeded. Probably helped that he didn't succeed. He didn't spend time in prison, but a psych ward. When Reagan heard he was finally set free he wished the best for Hinkley.
Jodi Foster was a College Freshman at the time. Hinckley was obsessed with the film Taxi Driver, which Foster was 12 when she made
The what-ifs are always interesting, like in the case of mustache man or castro
Just to note that WatchMojo has a bad record of historical accuracy in their videos.
Plottwist: the failed assassination attempts were the result of time travel.
When time travel will have been invented, the people will have split in two factions:
- the "Unalive Mustacheman to prevent WWII" faction;
- the "Keep Mustacheman alive to preserve the spacetime continuum" faction
The attempted assassins were time travellers from the UMM faction, but they were thwarted by time travellers from the KMA faction.
3:13 This statement is wrong, Ronald Reagan was already President in 1981, a better comparison would’ve been Theodore Roosevelt in 1912
Roosevelt was running for an unpopular Third Party (Bull Moose).
The Day of the Jackal is a classic. Kurosawa listed it as one of his favorite films, and it clearly set the ground for a lot of the more modern grounded spy-game genre of thrillers. It does have some fact as far as the story goes (such as the failed OAS assassination on de Gaulle) but the plot is almost entirely fictional otherwise as it occurs after the 62' assassination attempt and involves the OAS hiring an assassin named the "Jackal" to finish the job, and the French government's attempt to hinder the attack and/or find the Jackal before he can carry it out. It's adapted from a very popular Forsyth novel.
So happy to hear your words on this Mr. Terry
Mr. Terry is one of the voices I trust to sincerely discuss what happened and what it means for the country & not just try to make the most political hay out of it. Thank you for that
Trump now has more street cred than most rappers…like what is this timeline?!
Teddy just tanking it always makes laugh, he is like "is that all you got?"
Not to be the actually guy? Mr. Terry i'm coming here exactly for you say actually and follow up with loads of extra information.
Correction: FDR was elected 4 times but died at the beginning of his 4th term.
"Death had to take Roosevelt sleeping, for if he had been awake, there would have been a fight." -- Thomas Marshall . What a legend!
A bit surprised not to see any of the British Royals on here
In Re: Hitler assassination... Feild Martial Erwin Rommel was tied to this plot and according to his own papers published by his son Mayor Manfeild Rommel he was at that meeting. He left because he wanted nothing to do with the plot. However he would officially commit suicide rather than stand trial.
Jodie Foster was 12 when she starred in Taxi Driver, and the movie came out when Hinckley was 18. But when he tried to impress her by shooting Reagan, she was 18 and he was 25.
Unfortunately, these kinds of events are crystalizing. They don't change very many people's opinions, but they sharply focus the opinions people already had. Those who supported the victim will be more fervent in their support, defensively feeling like the attack on the one they identify with is an attack on themselves. Those who oppose the victim will anticipate that fervor and be defensive themselves.
It will be interesting in the months that follow to see what caused this lapse in security. Securing vantage points is a large part of why attempts at long range haven't really been a thing since JFK. That said, I've looked at the elevation on Google Maps compared with what news outlets have shown for the location, and it may have been a situation where they didn't realize line of sight existed there. The detail for a sitting President is also far larger than for a former one and campaigns go through a lot of venues in quick succession, so it may also have been a manpower issue.
I am happy to learn about history, especially from someone who makes those topics so interesting to watch. Thank you MrTerry, I never had the possibility to learn about anything after WW1 in school. Your videos have made a big impact in the knowledge I have know. Greetings from Austria, Europe! ❤
Personal Note: I am not a fan of Trump, however it doesn't mean that I believe the assassination attempt is justified. It needs to be set in society that you stop with hate or disrespect when people get injured or it leads to it (well, obviously it should be possible to argue without it, but some humans can be awful in a certain way). But maybe I have an odd view of the world.
Theres a musical called assassins that covers some of these
“Cactus Jack” Garner, FDR’s first Vice President, was quite different politically.
Lmfao how is that gonna impress Jodi Foster? Nice!! Idk why but that cracked me up. Great vid Me Terry
People in the early 80s are just as insane as people today, taxi driver reminds me of Joker
she actually once told a fellow actress - jokingly but still - that she actually was quite impressed
he became obsessed with her from the film Taxi Driver and in the film the main character who she interacts with in a positive manner tries to kill a presidental canidate, so he, in his dillusion thought killing the president would impress her
In her trial, Fanny Kaplan, was diagnosed with a mentality of a 10-year-old child. They still executed her for her attempt on Lenin.
Sarah Moore attempted on Ford.
And Lynette “Squeaky” Fromme.
You should make videos of you reviewing movies with historical relevance. I would definitely be interested in watching that.
FDR died of stroke, rather than polio. Furthermore, there is some speculation that Cermak was the target, rather than FDR. The theory is that Al Capone targeted Cermak, because of his work against the Chicago mob.
Lenin assassination was a scene from Marat assassination. Stalin, Zinoviev and Kamaniev were behind it. ( Sr Agent) “blind woman “ ( God’s makers or victor Chernov best friends.) History is the great poet
1:10 such as the shirt the shooter is wearing.
he just bought a shirt, okay. it has nothing to do with Matt Karacker, his youtube channel, or his viewers.
i would know, since i am one of his viewers, and i know others that watch him. the shooter is not one of us
For some reason i immediatly thought of Philip II of Macedon's end when i saw it on the news.
I love this video good job mr Terry will you do a video about the great molasses flood
2:40 I think they mean actual as in... went into motion, wasn't stopped ahead of time.
Even though... you know... 2 minutes.
also i have a tv series recommendation i feel you may enjoy as a historian - Deutschland 83, 86 & 89 (1 series + 2 sequel series)
Jodie Foster was 18 at the time of the attempt on Reagan's life. Hinkley was 25.
Oh I KNOW about the Algerian war of independence.... my family on my dad side (like my granddad) was directly involved and lived through it.
interesting comment... "As a man he's alright, but as a president, he's not alright" that's a very interesting insight to his mindset
11:36 Garfiiiiiielllllddddd!!!
malala graduated from oxford university in 2020
Good stuff Mr Terry. I did find it interesting that WatchMojo didn't have the photo of Trump with the flag in the background. Maybe I'm overthinking it but why not use the actual iconic pic
Probably couldn't get free permission from the New York Times, which owns the rights.
My dad was 12 when Kennedy was taken out, then just a few years after that was RFK, MLK was also shortly around this time, he was just into his 30s when Reagan was shot at, and now Trump. I called him the moment I saw what happened. Its crazy that in 75 years we have had so many. And I get MLK wasnt a political leader but he was important.
Say that he wasn't trying to go FDR but rabbied him mayor of Chicago because it's known that the mayor and Al Capone were not in great terms
No matter witch side we are living in history ladies and gentlemen
A new music video was posted today, a parody of "We Didn't Start the Fire" but for moments much further back in history. The title of the video is "We Didn't Start the Fire (Bardcore | Medieval/Renaissance Style Cover)" from the channel Hildegard von Blingin'. I'd love to get your take on the incidents, places, and people chosen in the song!
ah yes bush. almost assassinated by shoes.
Was the bullet in Roosevelt? Didn't his speech/booklet stop the bullet?
What's with all the assassins named John?
Sorry but WTF does she mean by apparent? It is or it isn't there is no apparent to paraphrase the great Yoda.
It means "It seems to be." Glad I could help.
To me, when you, as a history teacher, talk about the assassination, it feels like it's more historic event instead of political gossip opinions. Good stuff🫡
5:34 Death from polio.... FDR died from a cerebral hemorrhage while posing for a portrait on April 12, 1945...
(The Day of the Jackel 1973) is a good movie one of the best movies about a assassin hunting his target. Give it a watch if you have the time
Fun fact Antonín Čermák was from czechia
7:45 yes there was a huge push from the democrats for people to register and vote against trump in the primaries
No way Seward wasn’t shown
Christo Aivalis figures that it will blow over, but others figure that it made Trump unbeatable. Speaking of the attempt, Christo pointed out that they did try this in a small town.
Malala is married to a Cricket fan and living in the UK. She is fairly active on twitter. Every once in a while, she gives an interview - especially on Malala Day. She gave one for the CBC's The National a few days ago. In it she talks about the deportation of undocumented Afghans in Pakistan.
"It is horrifying how many schools have been bombed in G, even more recently the four schools. It is deeply concerning because we know that children do not have a future when they’re living under a war, when their schools and homes are destroyed." - Malala Yousafzai, as reported by the Jerusalem Post a couple of days ago.
A Canadian MP posted a compilation of d threats he had gotten on voicemail.
Not surprised at our history of political violence. Just look at Bleeding Kansas.
You should read up on the "Curse of Tippecanoe" about the deaths of US presidents elected in years ending in zero. Reagan broke the streak in 81. It's basically an urban legend, with some crazy Coincidences.
Omg Mr terry I just noticed the nba jam and tmnt cabinets. Those are cool as hell.
It was already clear who the bad guys are, but what the hell. Have some more supporting evidence.
poor trump 😢 and im so sorry for the family of that wonderful father who died protecting them, and the two others in the hospital….. rest in peace to that father…
Few notes on Reagan in 1984 Reagan was not the largest landslide in American history that belongs to FDR in both the Electoral and Popular vote.. fun fact about that election My state of Maine went with the Republican Alf Landon of Kansas. Reagan had the second largest electoral landslide. Reagan also had the third largest popular vote margin ... FDR was number one, Herbert Hoover 1928 was number two.
The 1984 election we get two terms kinda used today though way out of context. Reagan Democrat refers to a voter who voted for Ronald Reagan for President and a Democrat as their house member. The Democrats won a near Veto proof number of seats in the house and Senate. A true "Blue wave" election. The other is the "Silent Majority" giving a "Mandate"... Really weird election and the first I remember.
4:20 - How can you be an unemployed bricklayer?
By being a bricklayer that is unemployed.
@@chesterlestrange7725 If you are a bricklayer, that is your employment, no?
@newwaveinfantry8362 that is your trade. I spent 4 years becoming a certified journeyman welder and then another 5 becoming a weld inspector. If I lose my job I don't lose my credentials or title. I'm still a welder and a weld inspector. I'm just not currently employed. Bricklaying is a trade. You record your hours of experience under a journeyman as an apprentice. Your title is an apprentice "insert name of trade". At specific intervals of hours you go and take your first, second and third year tests. Then your journeyman test.
I just have to point out the FDR assassianation I love the mention of Mayor Cermack who was no stranger of political violence. He had tangoed with Al Capone and was attacked several times. Capone was very upset that this shooter had not been one of his guys because he hated that mayor. If I remember correctly he had sent an assassian to Miami but the assassian had been detained because it was knowen he was friends with Al Capone.
comments better be respectful
WatchMojo sucks. Reagan was not a CANDIDATE in 1981, was just starting his first term.
It didn't say he was a candidate. It said he was president.
I'm getting tired of living through historic events. Like everything is history but like a year or 2 that aren't worth putting into text books.
Next Call of Duty storyline?
2:35 That's an election winning photo
Sorry but I have swore to never listen to a watch mojo video ever it’s just repeat sludge.
to be fair, i disagree with the statement "thats not something that happens in america very often". I mean sure, its not every week but it feels more often than in most countries (especially democratic ones)
Compared to English for example? Yeah, it really doesn't happen often at all in the US
I thought you were non aligned. You ran straight into their trap
Watch Mojo has always been memed on a lot for their videos not being very good, but this one was good.
Cassius Marcellus Clay
nice to see mr terry doesn't allow people to talk.
Malala is doing fine. She's partnering with organizations to help Palestinians get education as almost all their schools have been destroyed. People have been dragging her through the mud for showing sympathy for both sides. I feel like you should do a video on war time through out history and how it effects both sides. War isn't always black and white. Often it's a gray area with good and bad people on both sides. Even people who aren't soldiers like Mary Virginia Wade. We have to remember that war hurts everyone involved regardless of morals.
Bjork didn't even make the cut, smdh 😂
Otto Von Bismark The Iron Chancleor
You're confused the algerian Civil War from 1991-2002 to the Algerian war of independence 1954-62
My bad
@@MrTerry no big deal sir
I think Malala just continues her work & lives her life.
My post will probably be taken down but my surviving cousins that survived the Holocaust that saw all the signs. One cousin that is 115 years old that survived Hitler and notices way too many similarities.
“He missed by 2 inches.” All 6 cousins and 1 uncle said 2 inches.
If my grandfather was alive he would say “At least Regan had class when he was shot at.” He probably also say “Too bad the shooter didn’t used a Barrett 50 cal.” That is the same thing he said during the Regan assassination attempt.
Is RUclips pulling a joe biden?
mr terry i believe youre on the left ish side of the political spectrum, maybe libertarian, but i appreciate you not just crapping on trump and blaming him for everything… its both sides fault “we need to put trump in a bullseye” “he is a dictator” :(
chicken?
@@chrisvibz4753 i meant your profile pic, that looks fire
@@MathsOP its amazing, and the pickle juice is a game changer. i prefer to have this chicken between two pan toasted buns (just throw a decent glob of butter on there with all the paprika and seasons juices still on the pan after cooking)
I mean no offense but im not american and Trump has many many undemocratic tendencies. In any functional democracy he wouldn't be allowed to run after Jan 6th. But now i guess he is almost untouchable after what your supreme court decided. Not thats these are the only problems.
Why exactly can the president appoint judges that have strong political leanings?
@@Admiral-General_Aladeen worry about your own country sir. trump is a republican, the UNITED STATES is a Constitutional Republic, not a democracy. and you only watch leftist media i see. thats all they allow the world to see is one side of the political aisle. Imran Khan supports trump why dont uou? how many dictators in middle east right now? we as americans have the right to take doen tyrants. there is a zero percent chancd trump could EVER be a dictator. worry about your own country please.
I can't say I'm surprised this happened, though I am disappointed. I mean, common America. I thought we were supposed to be the shining city on the hill.
Lmfao watch mojo
Immagine a 16 yo getting his license and is asked do you want to register as a republican or democrat? Dad are we republican or democrat? And dad responds republican.
@forbidden-cyrillic-handle that is my point. It is possible to register politically as your parents, but have completely different political views.
@@forbidden-cyrillic-handle Not really. At that age you are almost completely influenced by the people around you and the ones in your immidiate interest circle online. I've never seen anyone who would have genuinely developed their own nuanced views of politics before turning 20 or so.
