Frederick II, Holy Roman Emperor

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederick_II,_Holy_Roman_Emperor

It depends on what you think his endgame is. If it's to consolidate financial and geopolitical power for himself and his allies, perhaps. If it's to cement a dignified political legacy as a world leader/politician, I can't really see it at this point.

Any old demagogue

Any Pope that was trained in theology and not law

peter the hermit

worst thing I've read on Veeky Forums all day

Plague of Trump when?

It would have to be a leader who is despised by most of his own social class and is also a fire elementalist.

Big if true

we can't let that madman get the airship designs

Is this bait? Trumpkins would have called him a cuck.

Actually, yeah. He just won the eternal worship of the Sionists, who are the less terrible Jews and powerful allies against the Wandering Jews, who are the ones behind most of the troubles affecting Western Civilization. If there’s anyone that knows how to combat jewry, it’s the jews.

It's totally to consoldiate financial and geopolitical power for himself, and his allies.

the wall is clearly to give a multibillion dollar government contract to private real estate and construction firms he's closely tied to. It's not like 2,000 mile hunk of cement actually is going to fix a problem that's statistically on the decline and mostly done by plane anyway

and scaling Bush's wars and Obama's drone wars back up is just a way to make military stock skyrocket. People were going nuts over Raytheon stock, including the so-called liberal media trump supposedly hates, which has never had better ratings since they partnered up with him for 24/7 outrage cycles over nothing.

He owes billions of dollars in free coverage to them.

It's 4d chess for financial gains.

He sold so many hats and merchandise his candidacy was worth it even if he didn't win

it was truly one of the most shameless acts of selfishness since Ancient Rome

God bless Donald Trump

Actually, yeah. He just won the eternal worship of the Sionists, who are the less terrible Jews and powerful allies

Was waiting for the right to admit that they love Israeli fascist imperialism in the middle east, and only hate leftist Jews in the entertainment industry.

Drumpf :)

nice, any recs about him?

this kind of mental gymnastics is hilarious

Nero. Had popular support but the elites hated him (at the beginning, at least). No real interest in governing, but wanted people to know how much of a genius he was. His policy was basically run by a group of close advisers that ranged from well meaning to entirely self-interested, and initially managed a competent rule that slowly descended into chaos as the ruler himself attempted to seize more power.

Shit, re-read and missed the medieval part. Don't give a fuck, sticking with Nero.

Sounds like George W. Obama to me.

Well, I don’t know about “the Right”, but personally, yeah, sure. Israelis are scheming bastards using all the tricks in the books learned over millenias in exile to advance their cause, but that’s hardly a negative thing. I’d do the same for my country. As long as they stay in their country and don’t go against the interests of mine, I see no reason to oppose them. Especially since they are against our common ennemies.

Wherehas the internationalist Jews are actively undermining all of Western civilisation, not necessarily all for the same reasons but with similar tactics. Some do it out of ideology, some out of hatred, some spurned to it by their mentally ill inbred minds, some simply for profit.

Henry VIII.

kek wheres the lie?

Emperor Charlemagne/Karl the Great was unironically compared to Donald Trump, so I would say him.

>For roughly the same reason that a medieval pope, Leo III, anointed another political bully, Charles the Great, better known as Charlemagne. Put simply, they want a “protector in chief.”

Fuck me that has the be the dumbest oversimplification of and comparaison to an historical event I’ve seen in a while. And it’s from a supposedly respectable source too. I may have had a minor aneurysm while reading it.

John FitzAlan, 1st Baron Arundel

Commanding a force with the purpose of bringing relief to the Duke of Brittany, Sir John was compelled to wait for stronger winds. During this wait he decided to take refuge in a nunnery, where his men "took no notice of the sanctity of the place and... violently assaulted and raped"[3] those they found inside. Further to this Sir John "allowed his men to ransack the countryside as they liked and to impoverish the people".[3] When the force eventually set out to sea, carrying with them goods stolen from a nearby church and under a pronouncement of excommunication from the wronged priests, the expedition was caught in a storm. Thomas Walsingham reports that during the panic of the storm, Sir John murdered those of his men who refused to make for shore for fear of being shipwrecked upon the rocks. Subsequently, after safely arriving on an island off the Irish coast, Sir John and his boat captain were swept back into the sea and drowned.[3]

He was a minor noble.

Only in modern times could such an incompetent character become head of a powerful state.
