You mean Ford.

At the time when Vietnam fell yes it was Ford, but I was also talking about the period before that.

The politics of the situation was pretty simple. US involvement was going to be scaled down, more and more. Neither a president facing possible impeachment, nor an unelected president who pardoned Nixon, was in position to reverse that. Presidents aren't dictators.
