Mine is parasite. He feeds off of people by taking their services or benefiting from their labor and then trying not to compensate them. He enjoys the benefits of the economy, such as paved roads, but avoids paying taxes. He grabs women for his own twisted gratification but then demeans them when they speak up. He stoked up his crowds in order to reap their enthusiasm and hear their applause. He's in the White House churning out executive orders, not to better society, but to feed his narcissistic ego.

(32,047 posts)The DunningKruger effect is a cognitive bias in which low-ability individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly assessing their ability as much higher than it really is. Dunning and Kruger attributed this bias to a metacognitive incapacity, on the part of those with low ability, to recognize their ineptitude and evaluate their competence accurately.

(10,169 posts)He gets to be President for his enormous ego but knows absolutely nothing about running a country. He will do whatever his masters in the GOP tell him and sign whatever they put in front of him.
IMO the "real" party (Ryan, McConnell, now Pence) didn't want him to be the candidate but they're certainly making the best of it as he's proving to be a most useful puppet.
