I think he actually believes whatever spews from his mouth. Self gaslighting.

@Druvius that seems like a sign of mental illness.

@freedom41 There's a lot of mental health professionals who have indeed questioned his mental health. Narcissistic personality disorder for starters. One can hope that it continues to decline precipitously in the next three years.

@Druvius Yeah, it is kind of like the preachers and con men who start to believe the lies they are selling.

@snytiger6 Yeah, at this point he really does think he was the greatest POTUS ever. The GOP, evangelical right, and fossil fuel industry propaganda have created a generation where facts and evidence no longer matter. Trump is the ultimate expression of that.
