Well worth the time to watch.
It’s not just a brief biography of the man. Hanson also discusses why the country needs people like him to do the things that may be distasteful (to some), but are vital to our survival. He touches on other military leaders like Sherman and LeMay, but also our current President.

And another recommendation: If you like this video, consider VDH’s many books, including The Case for Trump. The last is getting a little dated now because of the rapid pace of national events, but still well worth the time. The other one I really liked was Carnage and Culture (aka Why the West Has Won), but every one has been a jewel.




6.4/93.6

“I regret that I am to now die in the belief, that the useless sacrifice of themselves by the generation of 1776, to acquire self-government and happiness to their country, is to be thrown away by the unwise and unworthy passions of their sons, and that my only consolation is to be, that I live not to weep over it.”
— Thomas Jefferson

You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.
