I wonder what it’s like to have an honest conversation with the dude behind the Trump persona, when he’s let his guard down and he’s sitting right next to the person he trusts most. I’m not sure what I’d expect. Maybe it’s an act, maybe he’s earnest. Does he know what he’s doing? He acts for the cameras pretty damn well.
The guy is a psychopath without any empathy. I don’t think there’s much difference between media persona and reality here. Someone who acts so immorally can only be a bad person. There can be no excuses for this.
I mean, is anyone interested in who Hitler actually was? Does it matter at all? Maybe for pathological psychology, but little else really.
In any case, anything but a pleasant conversation partner, I would say. Especially because his hatred and his excessive stupidity are definitely not an act.

I don’t think there is anything else left
There is no person which he trusts. So this is what everybody gets.

I think you give him too much credit.
