The necessity of some whom we despise.

VDH uses various generals in American history to show how what he calls our therapeutic society sometimes (often) makes wrong decisions, picks the wrong leaders (generals) with socially admired personal demeanors for situations that call for personalities that are not admired, but who would do what was really needed:

Hanson is a supporter of Donald Trump, authoring a 2019 book The Case for Trump.[20] Trump praised the book.[20] In the book, Hanson defends Trump's insults and incendiary language as "uncouth authenticity", and praises Trump for "an uncanny ability to troll and create hysteria among his media and political critics."

likens Trump to a hero of ancient literature, sacrificing himself for the greater good

Hanson blamed Barack Obama for "deliberately [whipping up]" "much of the current division in the country",

Another source from the Church of Trump. I love your non bias expert's

Sometimes your comments are quite amusing.

It's a great video by an "expert". You can enjoy it without bringing up Trump. It shed a new and complimentary light for me on General William Tecumseh Sherman. It knocked my regard for Eisenhower down a bit. And made Patton really a whole lot more than just a brash, overconfident, loose gun. The war could have been shorter and a lot less lives lost had he been given all the command assignments he deserved.

And, yeah, it showed the destructive pettiness of valuing correct appearances over crude competence.
