Perhaps he could find a political party full of feckless cunts who will happily eviscerate every check and balance in service to an ingenue's ridiculous inability to confront reality? Nah. HT's the one who talked about fiction needing to be plausible, while history only needs to happen.

That being said, I don't think that character arc would have been terribly promising. Might have played into HT chucking it.
