There’s a great scene at the end of Babylon 5 season 4 when a bunch of pundits are talking about John Sheridan much like you are talking about Churchill. It all happened years after the fact and sounded so plausible and so truthful, like they absolutely knew what they were saying was gospel. Perhaps you are a foremost expert on Churchill and not just a rando on the internet.

On the other hand, using B5 (specific episode of course, as one does) as your straw man when there are mountains of easily googled real life, foremost expert created, not from moms basement critiques and analysis of Churchill's legacy is pretty much the definition of "just a rando on the internet". There's a Comic Book Guy in every intrawebs argument, and he just waddled into the room.
It was actually an ad hominem because I was attacking you not your argument, also you cited 'google' and then called me a Comic Book Guy. Sick Burn.
