God chooses the rulers over us, no matter the reason. I don’t believe that He makes mistakes, but oftentimes, we do not have the prism of the future that He does, so what seems to be a mistake is not. We do not have the divine view. I suspect that you won’t agree, but all we can do is what we feel God is leading us to do, and he is responsible for the rest. by all means, we are free to choose, and we will be held accountable for our choices, but that is free will. It doesn’t always come out the way we want, but ultimately, it will. In my honest opinion.
Then the only conclusion is that we are under God’s judgment.
