What a wonderful commentary on the relationships between unheard populations and antiheroes. The Escobar/Trump parallel is quite interesting. I think this helps to remind us that phenomena like Escobar and Trump don't just suddenly happen by force of personality alone - there are people out there who elevates these "leaders", empower and allow them to be the forces of wreckage that they ultimately are. Great article.
