Well, Churchill was for most of his life a failed politician, a failed author and an alcoholic.

But he did see the Nazi threat to civilization ahead of most of his contemporaries, in the same way that Trump sees the threat from Islam.

Churchill foresaw the threat not only from the rearmament of Germany in the 1930s, but the threat of Soviet expansionism after World War II. He was far more prescient and analytical than Trump ever could be.

Circumstances sometimes conspire to force a leader to rise against his inclination and and his will.
