You are talking politics--the domain of public policy--where people often disagree on the means, while being mostly in agreement on the ends. I am talking value systems--regarding lawlessness as a tool rather than a dysfunction. Regardless of one's politics, I suspect most people are offended by the idea of using lawlessness in this way--as evidenced by his brief tenure. Basketball for example: Say the fans see a player traveling. The referee also sees it, but does nothing. How will the fans react? Value systems. Rules are there to be enforced. People get pissed off when the rules aren't enforced, or enforced inconsistently. I think it goes without saying that apples occasionally fall far from the tree... occasionally.
