Great story and all, but this piece is obviously written as an attack on Trump for things he didn't do, and failures that never happened to him.

When will the media get that this doesn't work?

What makes you think this is "obviously [an] attack" rather than just a cautionary tale? I certainly found it helpful to learn about a historic leader with strong similarities to Trump even though most of the left-leaning media portray him as something entirely new.

I suspect it was written to be sold. Not so much to influence.

It was an entertaining read and likely to get lots of clicks.
