We compare 44 President’s quotes in history to 45. This proves that Trump is inept, unqualified, unprepared, corrupt, incapable of the truth, without conscience, without honor, lacks empathy, and is truly what psychiatrists call a malignant narcissist. Our Democracy is shaking and if elected again, we and the World will be slaves to the rich and powerful. Dictatorship will follow. We will be publishing quotes from former Presidents every day for 44 straight days and compare them to 45, our current President YAHOO. We are on # 28 (twenty eight).
Woodrow Wilson
28th President of the United States
Thomas Woodrow Wilson (December 28, 1856 – February 3, 1924) was an American politician, lawyer, and academic who served as the 28th president of the United States from 1913 to 1921. A member of the Democratic Party, Wilson served as the president of Princeton University and as the 34th governor of New Jersey before winning the 1912 presidential election. As president, he oversaw the passage of progressive legislative policies unparalleled until the New Deal in 1933. He also led the United States into World War I in 1917, establishing an activist foreign policy known as “Wilsonianism.” He was the leading architect of the League of Nations.
Woodrow Wilson:
“If you want to make enemies, try to change something.”
“You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.”
“I have always been among those who believed that the greatest freedom of speech was the greatest safety, because if a man is a fool, the best thing to do is encourage him to advertise the fact by speaking.”
“A conservative is one who makes no changes and consults his grandmother when in doubt.”
“The presidential office is not a rosewater affair. This is an office in which a man must put on his war paint.”
“Whatever may be said against the chewing of tobacco, this at least can be said of it, that it gives a man time to think between sentences.”
“There is a great melting pot in which we must compound a precious metal. That metal is the metal of nationality.”
“Only peace between equals can last.” “Peace like charity begins at home.”
“Our American merchant ships must be protected by our American navy. It can never be doubted that the goods will be delivered by this nation, whose navy believes in the tradition of “Damn the torpedoes; full speed ahead!”
