Turkey's Erdogan cites Hitler's Germany as example of presidential system (http://www.reuters.com/article/us-turkey-erdogan-einstein-idUSKBN0UF1T820160101)

From what I can tell, he apparently used it in exactly the opposite way, as an example that the presidential executive system has faults and isn't perfect, and that checks and balances must be made. He went on to bring up other western countries that have a presidential system as a positive example. I'm the first to shit on Erdogan and his blatant grabs for more power and authority, which this absolutely is, but this crap title is pure clickbait. Worse, it's a blatant lie contradicted by the very contents of the article.

Would be pretty dumb of him to admit of being einstein's wannabe to whole world.
Was also pretty stupid of Russia being the only nation to annex lands in fucking Europe after many decades of peace. Yet majority of their people and allies find it completely justified. Never underestimate the power of propaganda. If an agressive nation can just take lands practically at the center of Europe during these times and do it so convincingly that everybody just turns a blind eye to it or in majority of the time claim it "reactionary". Its quite the solid proof, that you can still pretty much get away with everything.

I wouldn't worry about that too much, yeah majority of the country would love to see everyone bending knee to Turks , but Erdoğan and his disciples just want to get rich as safe/much as possible. They may lure the country in the war for the sake of their own safety but don't expect them to spend money for that shit.
