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:

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.

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.

Not to mention Churchill’s “Black Dog”.

If our corrupt petty press existed before World War II - here and in Britain - we would be speaking German today....

I liked Darkest Hour--no nude scenes, sex scenes or profanity. It even featured a cat!

William Manchester relates that when Churchill was 85 and sitting in Parliament, a member sitting behind him whispered to his neighbor, "They say the Old Man is getting gaga." Without turning, Churchill said, "Yes, and they say he's getting deaf too."

Trump should figure out a way to turn all this talk about mental incompetence into a joke against his opponents.

To say I adore, respect, and admire Winston is not enough. He was awesome.
