Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Trump. They are/were great orators. Knew what the audience wanted to hear and gave it to them in spades. I would NOT want to live under any of the 4 I mentioned.

Here in NL, we have Wilders, who is very similar. A very good orator. When he became the largest party (I say "he" as he is the only member, he was shocked, frightened. It meant that he could no longer get away with what he'd always done, and what Farridge is doing. No, he found himself in a position where he was now part of the institution he had done nothing but criticise without coming up with a viable solution. He, and IMO Farridge too, don't have solutions. It's not their way. All his far right anti immigrant and anti Islam manifesto policies have been put away because they are illegal in NL and/or illegal in the EU and/or would break international treaties to which NL is a signatory. Basically, Wilders is clueless, as is Farridge, IMHO.
