    Jonah Goldberg Retweeted Katherine Miller

    Been saying something similar for a while. Humans are wired to want the leader of our tribe to be deserving of our followership. So we tend to redefine what a leader should be to fit the man.https://twitter.com/katherinemiller/status/1156598312625221632 …

        I cautioned my friends on the right of this very point when they nominated Trump. I told them that the party would morph to fit him rather than the other way around. That proved to be a solid forecast.

        Most want their leaders to be bigger than life, stronger than anyone else’s. Even bin Laden recognized people want to follow the strong horse. And this tendency can be compatible with democracy - G Washington, A Jackson, T Roosevelt, Eisenhower, Reagan.

        Anyone that looks to another human for "leadership" rather than looking within and leading oneself to be good and decent deserves the leader they get.

        That is both interesting and nuts and stupid, while diminishing neither.

        Some of us don't look for a leader. I'm perfectly willing to lead myself and do not need to be lead. Frankly, I'd rather see "leaders" get out of my way.

        Individuals don’t have to redefine, they can define for themselves.
