A great leader? He bungled so many decisions he shortened the war considerably for the allies, if not giving us the victory.

I suppose you could say he was a spellbinding speaker, but his style would never work on a 2020 audience.

Of course, there is that thing about being one of the most infamous mass murderers in history.

So many historical figures come to mind for a hypothetical dinner. Washington and Lincoln, for sure. Napoleon, Alexander the Great, Caesar. Martin Luther. How about Jesus?

But Hitler? This guy is a few panzers short of an army.
