That remains to be seen but how would it be possible? How many cities did others have to save for her, the end result of her poor governing? A pity.
If these assumptions are true, I would say Danerys is Robert Baratheon come again bc she doesnt know how to do anything but conquer- except, shes probably worse. Robert was a drunken lecher but he wasnt stupid and reckless. He wasnt resistant to the instruction of his councillors. He knew that he wasnt the smartest person in the room. He knew what he knew and knew what he didnt know. He didn't make enemies of his charges and he sought to *work* with his enemies.
That is a good leader.

His explaining to Cersei why the Dothraki were a threat settled that. He didn't like his job so he left it to others. He complained about being "surrounded by Lannisters" but he knew he owed them his staying on the throne. And yes, he was a good leader when he wanted to. He was a weak man escaping his duties and making a mess of his own marriage. Robert wasn't a tyrant. He became king not because he wanted to but allegedly because he had the better claim through his relation to the Targaryen lineage. It means he was chosen amongst others. He and his friends overthrew the Mad King, which many thought was justified, but he didn't grab power for himself, like Aegon the Conqueror did or Daenerys wants to do. Daenerys is far worse than all those because she also wants to change the world. She's that kid who wants to fix your old clock, make it much better and will end up breaking it with a hammer. |

He wasn't resistant to the instructions of his councillors mainly because he didn't even bother showing up to the Small Council meetings. Instead he filled his council with schemers and open traitors like Varys who was always a Targaryen loyalist instead of following Stannis advice of killing him. He indebted the Crown to the Lannisters and the Iron Bank. Completely overlooked Cersei and Jaime's affair which ended up causing a succession crisis. He was terrible leader. Good on the battlefield but he had no business wearing a crown. |
