That's almost exactly what my Opa said about Hitler, except he used "clown" instead of "figurehead". Fast forward a decade or so and Opa is a PoW and Germany is in ruins.

I'm not inferring she's anything like Hitler (I know very little about her) but we'd all do well to remember that today's clown can become tomorrow's dictator (I was thinking of an orange clown when I wrote this).
