Yes, there are times in a country's history when IT CAN FIND ITSELF REALLY IN THE SHIT, and it's then that it needs a man who may not be the most "genteel and un-rough and un-raw". America found such men in its past history .... men such as General George Patton who an inferior military commander, Ike Eisenhower, didn't like and who kept Patton on the sidelines, ..... UNTIL HE KNEW THAT THERE WAS ONLY ONE MAN THAT COULD GET AMERICAN FORCES OUT OF THAT SHIT HOLE THAT THEY FOUND THEMSELVES IN DURING THE "BATTLE OF THE BULGE", as well as on the occasion when US forces were rushing to the north of Sicily in pursuit of the retreating Germans, and also in North Africa .... To quote a few of Patton's "classics" ---> The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his. A good plan violently executed right now is far better than a perfect plan executed next week. If everyone is thinking alike, then somebody isn't thinking. Men like George Patton and Donald Trump LEAD FROM THE FRONT WITHOUT FEAR OR FAVOUR AND HAVE THE COURAGE OF THEIR CONVICTIONS AND ARE PREPARED TO STAND UP AND BE COUNTED AND TO DO WHAT THEY BELIEVE IS CORRECT. Unfortunately it has also been the case that when such men have done what the others were not able to do, that they are often "swept aside" by the TIDE OF A MEDIOCRITY MAJORITY, because GREATNESS is, unfortunately by its very nature, in the MINORITY. Fortunately, however, Sniveling, Conniving, Worthless Arseholes like the Shiffs and Schumers and Nadlers will very soon be forgotten as they get DISPOSED OF INTO THE DUSTBINS OF HISTORY .....
