He just sees Mueller as the latest challenge, just like many before.

He's got one serious flaw: he is running his White House like he ran his businesses, and the rules are not the same. It's not just a matter of getting good press!

He also has a very tenuous relationship to reality, in my opinion. He tends to believe he can just say whatever is expedient in the moment and make that reality true--whatever "true" means to him. It's not so much that he's a con, but truth or fantasy are merged together for him.
