If it was just him, it wouldn't be that bad. Kinda like Bush Jr. The problem is that he surrounds himself with yes-men. I'm sure you've seen meetings with him and his orbit. He says something, stupid as hell, and his cult claps, stands, cheers and/or laughs like it's worthy of a Nobel. It's seriously deranged behavior. It's a cult. Except he's just grandpa sundowner everyone agrees with to get in his good graces, or a child spouting nonsense while the parents just go "that's nice dear" absent-mindedly. He's so easy to fluff.
