it is a classic failing of the weak mind to characterize those we oppose as despots, madmen, unhinged, self glorifying authoritarians  which the globe is fond of doing btw

when trump bombs a country  + it is due to his vanity and lack of rational thought

when obama does likewise  it is astute and shrewd statecraft
