The entire history of Napoleonic France was every bit as vile as the decadent monarchy the Jacobins deposed: violent, collectivist, godless, licentious... It led to the destruction of a generation of French patriots and left the nation in ruin, demographically ripe for later German conquest as revenge. What the hell is Trump doing emulating that?

Celebrate our people Mr. President: shopkeepers, craft workers, scientists, and the manual labor that made you rich. Why not?

I agree with you. Napoleon brought death and destruction to most of Europe. In a way he was another Hitler, just one without the concentration camps.

And it’s not like Napoleon ended his career in victory, as a winner. He was defeated at Waterloo, and then went into humiliating exile at St. Helena.

I really don’t get all the fawning over the guy.
