As they said of Saddam Hussein, “He’s a son of a bitch, but he’s our son of a bitch”

The West doesn't have a Modi problem. They have a problem with authoritarian morons in general, nowadays even more and more in their own ranks.
Or: humans are idiots, so they love to follow people who pretend they have a plan.
