Churchill was hated by the left wing in Britain, but they feared Nazi Germany even more than they hated him. Once WWII was won, they went back to the same idealistic idiocy as before, with barely a “thank you”.
Churchill ate and drank what he wanted. Smoked cigars too.
Lived to be 90.
(raises glass) To Churchill! To Trump! (clink)
Churchill was nuts, but so were many other great leaders. Good book:

Correct. Full speed ahead with socialism under Attlee, who nationalized the railroads and created the NHS among other abominations.
“Churchill ate and drank what he wanted. Smoked cigars too.”

Well, they didn’t fear Nazi Germany up until the point where it became clear that war was inevitable. Chamberlain’s “Peace for our time” was the order of the day way before “Very well: alone” and “Keep calm and carry on”.
If WWII were to happen today, all of Europe would be speaking German, there would be no Jews and the coasts of the USA would be speaking Japanese and German.
Without firing a shot. Just be against the USA is enough for 1/2 of America to roll over and help.

VERY funny——and I found out that he hated the English tea tradition,which surprised me.
Quite a guy.

Up until Germany started its takeover of Europe, their thinking was very much like liberals’ attitude toward Islam today: you can appease the devil by being nice and he’ll be nice to you in return. But they were in for a surprise because their idealism doesn’t work in the real world. Never has, never will. They don’t know that because they’re always trying to change history instead of learn from it.
HiLIARy can endlessly cough, spit out gunk into her glass, have a seizure and collapse and have to be tossed into a van like a sack of potatoes, losing her shoe,... and not one word from the media.
The coastal liberals wouldn’t be speaking anything, because most likely the Germans and Japanese would massacre them. The rest of the USA would keep fighting. Don’t know about Canada, but I don’t see that they are all like Trudeau.
Not to mention Churchill’s “Black Dog”.
Not to mention Churchills Black Dog.

Great point.
Hear, Hear! (clink!)
