Transmetropolitan nails this.

Unfortunately for us as a civilization, the series has aged quite well.

Neither the Beast nor the Smiler are ignorant, conspiracy theorists, or foreign assets though (grifters and sex criminals, most definitely, I'll give you that, especially the Smiler, but most of the City's population seems to fit in those categories too, so in that sense they do represent their electorate).

They're both quite competent and intelligent psychopaths.
