      Yes he is. His military decision making was thankfully shit, his hatred of Jews caused a brain drain ahead of the war; nuclear research wasn’t prioritized because it was considered a “Jewish science”. Also his rearmament of Germany was completely unsustainable and would have collapsed the German economy if not for the onset of the war. Effective demagoguery =/= successful leadership.

      If I set out to make a thousand year empire that only lasted 11 years would you consider that successful leadership?

          Okay, so to be clear, your critera for “great” leadership doesn’t include any sort of decision-making skills nor effective delegation when said leader is out of their depth?

          If I worked at a company that had leaders making a long series of bad calls at a tactical and/or strategic level, for instance, I shouldn’t call that “bad leadership”?

      So you mean “those with the least ability to lead”. Yet Trump is still somehow running and he can’t even wipe his own ass.
