What historical figures (recent or ancient) can compare to Trump?
Liberals will of course say Putin (which of course they know nothing about), but in my limited knowledge, Putin gained support by reighning in oligarchs and stabilizing the country. Trump is doing the opposite of this.
In my limited knowledge, he seems most like Boris Yeltsin. A complete dolt and perfect avatar for the terminal stage of a failed empire.
I think certain traits are unprecedented. He may be the most anti-social leader in history. His administration is doing things that don’t make sense on a societal level, like defunding research for extreme weather and disease prevention.
Maybe this is just the most extreme form of narcissism on history: the entire world can end as long as I get what I want.
I know it’s low hanging fruit, but
Charismatic idiot that is really good at rousing the spirits of every fascist inside the boiling pot that is the USA, makes good deals for the top capitalists which are the tech bros in the current time, and spreads anticommunism as much as if the USSR still existed.
