I was doing a little research on King Herod “the great” (in power when Jesus born)and saw some coorelations with modern leaders.
His dad was good to Rome He was a puppet just like modern leaders He was a pyschopath, he arkancided a few of his kids and a wife.

Power will corrupt any person if they let it
