He's stupid, mad, or dedicated. Or perhaps all.

Either he didn't see the mess coming.
Or he saw it coming, and thought he'd be able to fix it.
Or he saw it coming, and thought the best thing for the country would be
to take the **** rather than have more of the previous government.

Personally I'd go for mad. Specifically megalomania - which is common to
all politicians, as every single one of them has a delusional belief in
their own omnipotence. Add a touch of dedicated too.
