5. It is his psychopathic nature

He will do whatever it takes to get to the pinnacle of the highest mountain. The presidency gave him our country and he viewed being POTUS as the ultimate entitlement, and that he deserved it--even though he lied, cheated, and stole to get there. As far as he's concerned he was smart enough to pull it off. God knows what he did behind the scenes (and I am only talking about 2016).

Actually viewing the presidency as a job and duty to serve was beneath him. He saw it as a title befitting him, and saw our country as a Trump acquisition. The fact that he plundered it and bankrupted much of it (including the deaths of almost half a million people) was no different than how he managed other Trump properties/acquisitions. He is like a vulture and will pick everything clean. I would bet his offshore holdings are full of proceeds of U.S. assets mismanagement (more like pillage, for we found ourselves fighting him every step of the way), and bribes/payoffs/blackmail from all over the world.

His "cult of personality" was his greatest achievement and will continue to give him power, access, and wealth. The people he subjugated? He couldn't care about them less. They mean nothing but a means to him.

He will continue to be a dangerous predatory psychopath.
