He was basically the Lyndon Johnson of Egypt:
- Ambitious domestic anti-poverty programs
- Foreign policy aimed at expanding/maintaining his country's sphere of influence, leading to wars in Israel and Yemen that drained him of economic and political capital (he died in office under somewhat suspicious circumstances, but if Egypt were a democracy he likely would have been defeated for reelection or been forced by parliament to resign)
- Incredibly abrasive, larger-than-life personality
