I think of King David slaying Goliath. That was a critical moment for Israel, but eventually, even David the hero had to be brought down. Heroes are necessary for a time, but they are always slain in the end.
In our times, literally no one else was willing to slay the US govt dragon. I'll take the person who volunteers to do it, with all of his faults, over the rest who stood by and let the dragon reign.
