3. He ran because he is a narcissist

Nov 2018

who had such a great opinion of himself, that he thought being POTUS would be a piece of cake. He literally had no idea what all it entailed or that he would have to learn things and be accountable to other people. I'm sure he liked the idea of being so powerful, too, and having everyone suck up to him .... the salutes .... hearing himself called "Mr. President" ..... "Hail to the Chief" ..... being in the spotlight 24/7 ..... that all appeals to him on a grand scale. And, being so conceited, he really believed that people would just adore him!
