∙ 11y agoThey shouldn't be cruel. At all even. To be cruel would be a purposeful abuse of power. This would, although essentially classify them as dictators, there are a few limitations to this, such as what we have. The "kings" in our country don't have total, all out power. Because of this, they are called Presidents. I quote-quoted kings because if we had kings, they would be able to rule for life and have a lot more power than just about all of us would be comfortable with. I didn't do this to presidents, however because they don't have seemingly unlimited power like most kings do. A king will only be cruel if his people let him.
