"When Kennedy learned of the deaths during a White House meeting, he appeared shaken and left the room. Kennedy later penned a memo, lamenting that the assassination was "particularly abhorrent" and blaming himself for approving Cable 243,[118] which authorised Lodge to explore coup options in the wake of Nhu's attacks on the Buddhist pagodas.[118]["
I think it's no small coincidence that his reaction crystalized and confirmed his decision to begin withdrawing US Military presence less than a month earlier.
Tragically we know what went through his mind on November 22, 1963, and it wasn't a lone gunman.
