      Don’t underestimate him. This is the guy who has gotten away with everything in his life with zero consequences.

      He’s not some sort of bizarro Candide.

        I’m not underestimating his dangerousness. But the fact is, he’s gotten where he is based on force of personality and people just letting him get away with things because giving in was easier than dealing with a whining man baby. No one expected him to gain a cult that quite literally worshipped him.

        But none of that changes the fact that he is dumb and just does whatever whoever praises him or enriches him the most. He’s not a puppeteer, he’s a puppet. An extremely dangerous fool.
