In fact, he's a dictator (or dictator-wannabe) out of central casting. Same excuses, same rhetoric (conspiracies, etc.), same crap going back to the Cold War - secret communicst conspiracies among the left that had to be stopped, and somehow it had to be done illegally would coincidentally end up with him holding all the power. It's even more absurd - another universal characteristic of dictators - because in the Cold War, at least the CCP was leftist, supported by some radical left fellow travellers. You won't see many on the far left supporting the Chinese Communist Party! It's now a favorite, along with Russia, among far right-wing oligarchs. Kudos to the South Korean people for stopping this nonsense and standing up for their self-determination, freedom, and democracy. The West should follow their example and get their help and advice.
