His narcissism and boredom are so profound, it doesn't matter to him if he is famous or infamous, as long as we're talking about him -- and we are talking about him.

His various psychopathologies will only get worse.

At this time, I consider him to be the most dangerous man on the planet. He will spend his money to stir up chaos to get attention for himself, as he tries to remake the world in his own self-loving/hating image.
