Or wondering about his ratings. Sure was a different world. I’m reading a book now about Churchill, read one about FDR last year. Amazing leaders that stepped up to the plate and worked their asses off. They had their issues for sure but both were the man for the job at that time. Didn’t shirk their duties or play the blame game. Sometimes as I'm reading I briefly think how it would been if Donnie dumbass was in charge back then. I can’t even imagine, it would be such a disaster but I guess we’d all be speaking German by now.

There is no way to compare Dumbfuck to people like FDR, they don’t share a single attribute. Now, Hitler on the other hand stacks up closely to the putrid puss pocket. Very similar in so many ways. Biggest difference is Hitler was very smart.
