This is all IMO. Here is a film that shows what happens when an egomaniacal person gets power. I watched this film a long time ago. It shows how a person can fabricate his own life to suit himself. This senator somehow got positions he didn't deserve or should have been in in the first place. People backed him blindly which gave him power to destroy people, their families, lives, occupations, careers. He should have been stopped a long time before he ripped apart lives.
