I’m not a believer in reincarnation but the parallels between Il Duce and Le Douchebag are pretty startluing, not only the poses and windy speechmaking but the fascist policies as well.
Mussolini called his philosophy “corporatism” and that seems to be what Hussein believes in as well...big, intrusive government and state capitalism where businessmen retain ostensible control but take their marching orders from the government.
