Dr Phillips believed that this reckless act of the sitting president of the US was nothing short of insanity. According to Plato, within the conceptual shell of democracy lies the ghost of the tyrant, the head of the hydra. Tyranny springs from the excess of democracy as democracy buds out from the excess of oligarchy. All over the world, political leadership has been awarded natural freedom and liberty in abundance by the generosity of the people to successfully tackle any situation consequent to the pandemic.
