This is unfortunately why many of us didn’t take him seriously! I thought he’d spend his life wanking off, buying expensive toys and talking nonsense about colonizing Mars. I think he would’ve stuck with that & not ramped up to trying to control geopolitics if not for the drugs.

True. He is one of the most pathetically addicted to praise people that has ever existed on the planet.
