"Your appearance now is what we call residual self image.
It is the mental projection of your digital self."
―Morpheus to Neo

THAT explains Trump in a nutshell!

He acts like how he thinks a rich man would act...being neither a real man nor rich himself...

He talks like how he thinks a tough guy would talk...if we were in "The Untouchables" (1987), "Goodfellas" (1990) or a left over episode of the Sopranos...

He marries what he thinks other people would envy, not for love or companionship...he has said so in the past and he is not a man given to moments of self-reflection or growth...

Donald Trump lives his live stuck on a mental image of himself that was never real in the first place and is cripplingly incompatible with his reality now.
