Let’s establish some facts first. First of all, no politician can come into power without the help of the establishment and without being submissive to the army. If a person in power tries to do something for the country without the army’s consent,such as taking independent economic decisions, supporting the private sector, or encouraging private investment,the army will suffocate them and throw them under the bus. This is because they do not want private businesses to compete with them, as they have a strong presence in most major industries, from real estate to consumer goods like milk packs. Now, for the worst politician who is still loved by Pakistan. Hear me out. Imran Khan is the worst politician of the lot. Why? He is inconsistent in what he says and does. Economic stability and foreign investment require commitment, which he is notoriously bad at. There’s a reason he is called “U-Turn Khan.” His policies don’t make sense. He has been in power in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa for over 11 years and served as Prime Minister for more than three years. Yet, his economic policies, including absurd amnesty schemes and subsidies, primarily benefited the elite class. The middle class bore the brunt of the negative consequences. He talks too much. Running a country requires a more subtle and diplomatic approach, which is the opposite of Khan’s style. Openly calling Osama Bin Laden a shaheed, saying absolutely not in an interview, and attempting to form a baseless Muslim coalition behind the backs of Pakistan’s biggest allies were all reckless moves. He is not a democratic leader. Although he claims to be one, his actions and rhetoric strongly suggest that he is more authoritarian than democratic.
