17. Fascists like Hitler and Mussolini

They were so similar to Trump in that they bragged endlessly about things they didn't do when the facts were they were running their governments as kakistocracies. Same as Trump in the US, rule by the least competent. Germany was a mess, Hitler didn't do anything good. Mussolini didn't mke the trains run on time, nothing worked well in italy under his rule. But all 3 of them bragged endlessly.

It's popular among White Supremacists to tout Hitler as smart and as a great stategic military mind. Hitler was the worst military leader maybe in history, he made tactical error after tactical error. He was a moron who ignored experts and went with his gut in trying to be bold (remind you of anyone?).

The one thing they did that Trump models himself after is propaganize exceptionally well. The entire MAGA movement is modeled after the rise of Nazism, every last little detail is based on Hitler's rise to power. And it's very miticulously on purpose.
