Anyone who won power is probably not going to be stupid, unless he's just a puppet. The best place to look has to be some hereditary monarch.

King George IV (England) is a decent starting point. He basically only cared about dressing up. Sort of a Justin Trudeau but without even the political cunning to get himself elected.

Surely there must be some inbred one who was literally an idiot, though?

Yeah it was because Germany was already at war with the UK, and needed natural resources. Allying with the Soviet Union would've provided that, and potentially a ton of men to help wage that war.

Even your town mayor or local important businessman is pretty clever if he was able to gain his status. When someone rules a much vaster territory, he is absolutely in the top of the cleverest people ever. Now of course he may be malignant or less clever than his rivals, but that's a different topic.

The sparrow thing gets memed a lot but really, even though Mao is mainly to blame for the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution, the fault lies also with the entire upper echelons of the communist party for allowing a single man to wield so much power. Even incredibly competent statesmen like Deng Xiaoping and Zhou Enlai weren't willing to confront him, and Deng even played an important role in the 1957 anti-rightist campaign
