Most people want a strong man to fix all their problems for them because the actual work nessisary to enact change is difficult.

People have always looked to a leader to tell them he will fix all their problems and can be trusted with power. And time and time again they have been proven to be false.

    Most people want a strong man to fix all their problems ...

    I can sort of understand the instinct for a strong leader peddling simplistic solutions.

    I can't fathom listening to the likes of the pooper-in-chief and thinking "Oh, yeah, that's a strong guy." But obviously, some people do.
