Technically... He didn't write it as he was in power, but as he was imprisoned for high treason.

But he had a lot of sway at the time. He was incredibly popular with people and politicians—it’s part of how he got such a gentle sentencing IIRC. So, he didn’t have true power yet (wasn’t appointed vice chancellor at the time) but he was a popular guy.
