I understand what you mean, but at this point I don't find it ironic at all. It's been quite similar in my corner of the world, where a leader enjoys great support and visibility externally, but is fairly unpopular internally.

No, but it is a European leader that has ~recently enjoyed that situation, but is no longer in it. Sorry, but I don't want to spell it out too obviously, for my own privacy.
