    It turned public opinion against Johnson's handling of the war.

    Explanation:

    On January 31, 1968 - the Vietnamese New Year, called "Tet," - socialist powers released enormous assaults on U. S. positions all through Vietnam. The Tet Offensive, broadcast daily in the U. S., stunned numerous Americans who recently had the thought the U. S. was effectively dealing with the enemy. U. S. powers in the end drove the North Vietnamese powers back and perpetrated gigantic losses on them, however the effect the fighting had on U. S. public opinion was similarly huge.

    Restriction to the war developed progressively heated and contributed powerfully to Lyndon Johnson's choice not to keep running for re-election in 1968.
