‘a US President like we have never seen before…’

US Presidents have been many things. Crooks, fools incompetents and liars, but Trump fills a category no other President can make claim to.

Many Presidents have been highly educated; some were self-educated like Abraham Lincoln. Some were born poor, but most came from the privileged classes. Some were arrogant, others deceitful. Franklin Delano Roosevelt served three terms and imposed draconian laws to save his nation from the depression. He was President to his last breath and the nation cried when he died. It’s a tough job to do well. A few might even have been wise.

Many US presidents were heroes in the classical and military sense. Washington led a revolution and an army, Ulysses Grant was a General in the American civil war, Theodor Roosevelt was a soldier and an adventurer, Jimmy Carter, Jack Kennedy, Ronald Regan and even Richard Nixon served their country in World War two but Trump, what makes Trump unique?
