Disagree… I think the desire for power can and does explain it all… Maybe I’m just a bit bored with the endless speculation about awful white dudes who seem to find themselves in powerful positions… who cares, honestly, about them, and who they REALLY are… what really matters, to me at least, is what they’re doing and would happily do to the rest of us in their hunger to be on top. I care much more about the effects of their actions, whatever their “true” reasons are, than I do about them.
Maybe this is WHO he is. 
occam’s razor and all that.
Again, the drive for power does explain that…
I don’t know why there needs to be a more elaborate explanation for it than that, honestly?
