The lead will change, as time progresses. And last time, it was the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who won the polls. Donald Trump came second. It is not surprising. All these leaders (Duterte, Putin, Modi, Trump.etc) have been vilified by the mainstream media, and this has provoked a backlash from the normal people.
Duterte= is killing citizens to fulfill campaign promise (crackdown on drugs)
Modi= is starving citizens to fulfill campaign promise (crackdown on black money)
Trump= is dividing citizens to fulfill campaign promises (crackdown of immigration)
Putin= Putin.
See a pattern? These seem like leaders obsessed with their own rhetoric, at the detriment of the citizens.
