Can readers suggest modern politicians this passage could apply to?"...he never consulted anybody and never did things as he wanted to; this happened because he did the opposite of what I said above. [He] is a secretive man, he does not tell anyone of his plans, and he accepts no advice. But as soon as he puts his plans into effect, and they come to be known, they meet with opposition from those around him; and then he is only too easily diverted from his purpose. The result is that whatever he does one day is undone the next, what he wants or plans to do is never clear, and no reliance can be placed on his decisions"
