His style of communication makes a lot more sense when you realize he doesn’t give a shit about convincing other people about things. He says it out loud to convince himself.
Unfortunately, he’s a clinical narcissist, so he really does genuinely have the ability to completely delude himself over his own superiority regardless of all evidence to the contrary. He genuinely believes he’s a genius, an intimidating presence, a great deal maker, a popular person with the general public, that he won all 3 elections, and even that he’s seen as a sex symbol. He does not live in objective reality in regards to his own attributes, or much else for that matter. It’s all delusion. And that’s before the dementia started setting in.
