If President Donald Trump successfully forges a deal that denuclearizes the Korean Peninsula, it will go down as one of the greatest deals in American history.
It was the greatest deal in American history, but how did Jefferson pull it off?
Just weeks into Jefferson's presidency, he learned that France was reacquiring the Louisiana Territory from Spain.
Writing to his envoy in France, Jefferson made clear how France's acquisition of North American territory was being seen in the United States: "The cession of Louisiana & the Floridas by Spain to France works most sorely on the U.S. [and] reverses all the political relations of the U.S.".
Despite Jefferson's hatred of Britain, he now found himself threatening to join forces with his former enemy to defeat his beloved France.
Through Pichon, the Jefferson administration fed information to the French, raising the specter of American cooperation with the British against the French.
How did Jefferson secure the greatest deal in American history? He did the things that most statesmen would do: draw a red line and use multiple channels of diplomacy.
