Yes, I understand that you are an expert on Churchill. So expert that you write 3 lines in reply.
The common factor between the two is grim determination to bring their nation to its full potential.
Just because you continually look for a savior does not mean I do. You are wrong about that.
Trump has accomplished much in business, and there is no reason to believe that he will not be a great president. He seems to have done quite well so far despite the continuous slings and arrows of detractors. When anyone steps forward to accomplish much, in the modern era, the attacks signify the potential for greatness.Quietude loves the mundane, and these are hardly the times for that.
Churchill stepped up when his country needed him. It is the same with Trump.
Churchill left Sandhurst and soldiered as a Subaltern, volunteering to join the forces going to fight a Muslim army in Sudan. He joined Kitchener and took part in the last cavalry charge of the British Army. Brandishing a Broomhandle Mauser pistol, due to having dislocated his shoulder, he plowed his horse headlong through a wadi packed with the enemy, shooting a man with every shot and killing at least five point blank.
After being taken as a prisoner of war in the Boer War he escaped, returning to England to win a seat in Parliament. At turns he earned a living as a Nobel Prize winning historian and rose in prominence as a recognized force in British politics. He was also a devoted and doting father.
During WWI he served as First Lord of the Admiralty, instituting a winning strategy to defeat the German U-boats, and somehow managing to develop tracked armored vehicles (tanks), which turned out to be the only effective offensive weapons. After his plan to force Turkey out of the war failed, he resigned and took a position as a Colonel with the forces at the front. He served there for the rest of the war.
After the war, he worked to resurrect his career and continued writing. However, through the 1920s and 1930s he was so unapologetically adamant about the looming threats of Soviet Communism and Italian/German Fascism that he was relegated to being a backbencher, an outcast in his own party, but he would not give up. He continued to work tirelessly, speaking to deaf ears, and being ridiculed mercilessly for it.
When war came and Chamberlain failed, he stepped up to the plate and became recognized for the bulldog that he was.
After the war, Churchill continued his fight against British socialism and Soviet Communism for another 20 years, being the central figure in the formation of NATO and tagging the Eastern bloc as the Iron Curtain.
Now let's look at Trumps accomplishments and tenacity.
Trump turned $100 million of 1970s NYC real estate into $4 billion of 2015 NYC real estate, a period when average NYC real estate increased in value by 1000%. Trump showed a willingness to take any position that got him press and he greased the palms of any politician that would take the money and perhaps worked with the mob to forward his own interests.
Good for Trump, but he is no W.S. Churchill.
I'd thank you to not insult Churchill's memory in such a manner again.
