    Default Huey Long, American populist and dictator

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huey_Long

    "Huey Pierce Long Jr. (August 30, 1893 – September 10, 1935), self-nicknamed The Kingfish, was an American politician who served as the 40th governor of Louisiana from 1928 to 1932 and as a member of the United States Senate from 1932 until his death by assassination in 1935. A Democrat, he was an outspoken populist who denounced the wealthy and the banks and called for a "Share Our Wealth" program. As the political leader of the state, he commanded wide networks of supporters and was willing to take forceful action. He established the long-term political prominence of the Long family.

    Long's Share Our Wealth plan was established in 1934 under the motto "Every Man a King," also the title of his autobiography. It proposed new wealth redistribution measures in the form of a net asset tax on corporations and individuals to curb the poverty and homelessness epidemic nationwide during the Great Depression. To stimulate the economy, Long advocated federal spending on public works, schools and colleges, and old age pensions. He was an ardent critic of the policies of the Federal Reserve System."

    Either an SEE or SLE, I'd say.

    Long...SLE-Ti 8w7 so/sp.

    SLE-Ti makes him a natural at warfare, both as strategist and tactician/executor. He could come up with the plan of attack but also execute. That made it easier for him to win political elections without the political machine behind him. Long was set on climbing his way to the top of the mountain. Because he is also SLE, he mainly does this through warfare, i.e. fighting and vehement attack -- insults, accusations, denigration, humiliation, trash talk, bullying (Trump is also SLE-Ti)....i.e. "killing the competition." Social dominance through fighting and bullying.SEE doesn't take quite the confrontational approach to politics that SLE does, because they are not comfortable with negativism. Their path not so hard and lusty.

    More on SEE-Se and SLE-Ti differences in political warfare...sle-ti show much more command over facts as needed for the line of verbal attack. And the repetition of a single insult or frame of reality over the long term is a SLE-Ti trademark in political/business warfare. SLE-Ti also likes to build up gradually to a larger habit (the ultimate insult). SLE-Ti picks up on habits. This ensures longevity of the insult. By doing that you have the person trapped in their own prison. If they try to hide that habit, then they look disingenuous. So it begins with a baseline attack - ie this person is a liar - and then can eventually lead into something larger like this lying is part of a habit of violating women (i.e. Trump's attack on Bill Clinton). It's like painting your masterpiece....it starts with some brush strokes on the canvas. Along with this comes the ability to grasp unifying insults in order to deal with multiple opponents. For example, in that above posted clip of Long, he's attacking both parties with the same insult. He grasped the "unifying qualia", so essentially, even though he is fighting against two different parties and hundreds of party members, he's reduced it to a one on one fight.

    SLE-Ti has more competitive stamina than SEE-Se and are more brutal/harsh in their attacks. See Trump's tweet about Joe Scarborough's wife and his attacks on Megyn Kelly; see also Mike Tyson's knockouts. SEE-Se insults are more general and don't hone in on the weaknesses and vulnerabilities of their obstacle. In contrast to LSI, SLE-Ti also has a blindspot for process, so the compensation is to turn up the volume/intensity on the line of attack whereas the LSI will plug information into the process and then be content that the process will convert that information into results. Contrast Trump with Putin.
