>President Donald Trump appears sui generis. Other troublesome populists, like Rodrigo Duterte of the Philippines, hold power. But no other nation of great influence is governed by someone so little rooted in reality and so much dominated by personality. >However, the president has a historical soul mate who ruled a century ago. The similarities are striking, though their lives obviously differed in important ways. One wonders: was the German Empire’s Kaiser Wilhelm II reincarnated as President Trump?

No, Trump is the Republican FDR.
His only interest is protecting America from terrorism and bringing Americans back to work.

Kaiser Wilhelm II's German Empire had to fall for Hitler to rise.
Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen...

Kaiser Wilhelm:
> Determined to make a precarious balancing of mutual defense alliances in a pastiche of Bismarck's realpolitik > Desired powerful German naval presence to challenge British supremacy. > Personal rivalry against his cousins the House of Windsor
Trump:
> Doesn't give a fuck if anyone likes him or not. > Self-made billionaire > No global aims beyond making all America's enemies die.

No, Steve, you're drunk. Reincarnation is fake and you have no power.
His supporters say he is, because 'populist' implies 'popularity' - and if they can get everyone to THINK he's popular no one will challenge him.
>> No global aims beyond making all America's enemies die.
Number of Nazis killed by Trump so far: 0. 14 if you count Daesh as Nazis, but most people don't. Note that AFAIK that's fewer kills per day than Obama ordered.
