How can Presidents use National Events to achieve their Aims/Powers.

-Obama used National Tragedies, like Sandy Hook and the Orlando Shooting, to press for Greater Gun Control in the US. The Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill also played for Obama's Green Agenda -9/11 in 2001 allowed Bush to seem more Presidential and a Sturdy Leader. Poorly Managed Events however backfired against Bush, as the Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan played Against Bush -The Capital Riots in January 6th allowed Biden to press for Greater Bipartisanship Cooperation. Biden also pressed for trying to Prioritise Diplomacy rather than Military Means by ending the 20-year Afghanistan Disaster
