“I listen better to the African-American people than anybody else. Anybody else in this room,” he said. In front of him was the son of Martin Luther King Jr., the most revered American civil rights leader of all time.
Trump has a complete lack of awareness of what is going on around him in the world except as it relates to him. No doubt he will be used as a case study in textbooks of what happens when someone with narcissistic personality disorder becomes the leader of a country. There is all sorts of material to draw from, like the running lists of his lies that reliable journalists have compiled in real time and the many thousands of videos of his disturbed behavior and statements.
I'm not sure what the textbooks will say about his rabid followers and mental illness.

Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) is a personality disorder characterized by a long-term pattern of exaggerated feelings of self-importance, an excessive craving for admiration, and struggles with empathy. People with NPD often spend much time daydreaming about achieving power and success, or on their appearance. This is a pattern of obsessive thoughts and unstable sense of identity, often to cope with a sub-par real life. People with the diagnosis in recent years have spoken out about its stigma in media, and possible links to abusive situations and childhood trauma. Such narcissistic behavior typically begins by early adulthood, and occurs across a broad range of situations.
