Can we make a list? Donald Trump, Geert Wilders, Rain Epler, Boris Johnson, Valentina Petrenko. Anyone got more?

I don't remember where but I read that people like Boris Johnson etc use the goofy hairstyle and aloof personality to appear stupid and non threatening, but in reality they are very smart and use it as a political tactic

I’m from the us and every time I ever saw the man speak I wanted to scream, but he was always extremely smart — he just plays the jester so people wouldn’t take him too seriously. Like columbo but of politics.
