People who are sure they can get away with ...."anything"...usually lose everything..

...Donald Trump will not be the first to lose ....Everything!

A. Adolph Hitler's invasion of the Soviet Union..
B. The Southern states decision to withdraw from the Union upon Lincoln's election...

There are so many other examples...Please name as many as you wish. (These 3 are just the beginning!!)
