Dutch election winner Geert Wilders is an anti-Islam firebrand known as the Dutch Donald Trump

He’s been called the Dutch Donald Trump. He’s been threatened with death countless times by Islamic extremists, convicted of insulting Moroccans and the British government once banned him from entering the country. Now Geert Wilders has won a landslide victory in a Dutch election and is in pole position to form the next ruling coalition and possibly become the Netherlands’ next prime minister. Wednesday night’s election result appeared to take even political veteran Wilders by surprise. Wilders, with his sharp tongue and shock of peroxide blond hair, has long been one of the Netherlands’ best-known lawmakers at home and abroad. His populist policies and sometimes unruly hair have caused comparisons with Trump.
