" somebody told me the other day that they (Russia) beat Hitler and they beat Napoleon ..,"
Trump

How the hell is this a revelation to Trump? How is it possible that any adult who has been through a western education system doesn't already know this and has to be "told". And this person is possibly going to be leading the world's no.1 economy shortly... words fail me.

Now think about the people who look at Trump and think (or say) "That guy's smart, I'm voting for him!".

And if he gets back in office it won't be the number one economy long.

Biden is literally senile. Has been on the road to senility for years.

Sad to say, but there are folks who are ignorant of history.

We all know who beat the Nazis… but generally we are the folks who went to class and stayed awake.

Buh buh buh buh his policies don'tchya know. Less regulation, more pollution, but who cares as long as I'M MAKING MONEY!!

Give us a link.

Closest I can find is this:

“Biden says, ‘We will not leave until we win,’” Trump said, lowering his voice to mimic the Democratic president. “What happens if they win? That’s what they do, is they fight wars. As somebody told me the other day, they beat Hitler, they beat Napoleon. That’s what they do. They fight. And it’s not pleasant.”

He’s not saying that this is a revelation to him, he’s just relaying what someone else said to him.

You’re all being disingenuous of course, which is nothing new.

And Trump doesn’t fight, he capitulates to his despot heroes. You saw the pictures yourself of the cocky self assured Putin walking in front of the dejected and subjugated Trump.

Putin owns him.

If Hitler did not invade Russia, Europe would be speaking German now!

The weather beat Hitler

The Russians were toast without US economic might.

The Russians benefited greatly from lean leads particularly oil.

However, the Russians stopped German Mobile War on their own.

Germany did not have the economic and raw material resources to defeat Germany once Russia was not knocked out early.

Germany produced 1,300 of Tiger I tanks from 42-45.
Russia produced that per month.

Germany could not win an attritional war.

They were running out of oil by Operation Blue.

As for the quote that started this thread, there is no reason to try to make Trump worse than he is. Trump does that on his own. In the context of the full quote, I read it as Trump mocking President Biden realizing Russia fights and wins wars w two specific examples.
