This is an excellent observation from Finnish military historian Petri Mäkelä. The Dirlewanger Brigade, named for its psychopathic leader, was a Waffen SS unit made up of criminals and thugs. It was so bad that other SS men complained about its brutality and lack of discipline.

Maybe Trump has recognized that he needs his own Dirlewagner Brigade 🤔https://t.co/ptznddPLGs https://t.co/icW8aHyNfl
