Dictators are lazy. They don’t have to keep something going. They simply take power.. and then leech off the people’s fears to remain in power.
Dictators aren’t lazy. At that, one seemingly consistent profile of Dictators is some form or another of OCD. They are obsessed with controlling everything in order to hold on to the power they have. They may not have to do the mundane like cook food or iron their clothes but they spend every waking minute obsessing over keeping power and control. Think about Saddam, Hitler, Idi Amin, Stalin. They could almost be described as psychotic bureaucrats in how they kept maticulus records and had to control every line item.
Lazy, nope. I don’t see this in O. He is an idealist, but he is also an establishment liberal which means he has the mentality nurtured in him to let others work while he reaps the benefits. He is a welfare president and he will be happy to continue to live off the fruits of others while he doesn’t have to work, retiring with a multi-million dollar pension in the prime of his life.
