Isn't the real problem that people believe what he says and see him as a legitimate source of information and leadership? An individual being rotten is one thing, a whole society giving this person power and respect shows that there are big problems in that society.

Take away ignorance and economic insecurity and people will start to make time for thinking rather than feeding their underbellies.
