He only watches friendly media, only listens to sycophants who are afraid to contradict him or give him bad news. And fills in all the blank spaces with lies and fantasies about himself and all of his successes.

How much of this is just for the benefit of the media and maintaining a winning persona, and how much he internalizes is an open question. I think after so many years of it he comes to believe that he can make his own reality come true.

He had no good reason to lie at all... yet here he is... lying again. It's a sickness. So demonstrably unfit for office.

Do we actually think Trump has a library of photos on his cell? And that he has enough diligence to scan through them and find an appropriate picture like the rest of the human race does. Doubtful. Which could lead one to believe that many of his posts are not written by him.
