You'd have to be completely ignorant of history if "strongmen" like Donald Trump don't remind you of Mussolini or other similar figures from history. Leaders like this arise as countries go bankrupt because the public doesn't want to accept the consequences of its profligacy. Wars break out, too? like the kind Trump seems determined to start against Mexico? or the kind that Hillary will probably continue to wage in the Middle East.
