In the case I experienced personally, most of those affected initially thought the problem to be incompetence or lack of knowledge and put a great deal of effort into dealing with it on that basis. Surely this person wanted to get it right and just needed to be educated on the facts, right?Most people don't recognise a sociopath until it's to late and the damage is done.

Long story short - the constant over the top drama, perceived as incompetence or just plain dumb, was in practice a very effective way of hiding the truth of what was really going on. So much resources were chewed up dealing with what seemed at face value to be the problem that everyone was in practice blind to what else was happening.
It's like the magician on a stage. Look here, watch the hand, here's a puff of smoke and some lights, whatever. It's necessary so that you're not looking at what the magician or others are really doing at that moment in order to produce the "magic". Same concept although at least with a magician it's all just done for entertainment with everyone knowing that what they think they're seeing isn't a true reflection of reality.
I make no claim to have worked out exactly what Trump is up to but his personality rings way too many alarm bells for me to not think there's something going on from which attention is being distracted.
In principle I do like many of Trump's claimed thoughts and ideas, he's a desperately needed alternative to the virtually indistinguishable ideas of other supposed leaders. Trouble is, there's so much drama and distraction on a constant basis and so many readily apparent lies that I'm not silly enough to think that Trump's claims will in any way match reality.
Now look what the dirty little racist has done

You do realised that his two sons actually hunt rhinos, elephants etc. right?
Daddy just revoked the ban on importing such trophies back into the US so the two douche, among other douches, can feel like a real man having those hanging on their wall.
Apparently nothing shows off one's manhood like sitting far, very far, away shooting to kill.
This is Sparta!-for pansies.
For once I can agree with you. Not cool.You do realised that his two sons actually hunt rhinos, elephants etc. right?

Yeah I do and I'm against it. Buuut apparently the hunts they provide to rich douches goes back into a lot of conservative work and breeding programs. Its the poachers that are the biggest threat.You do realised that his two sons actually hunt rhinos, elephants etc. right?

I knew a big game hunter that had killed everything. Wouldn't be surprised if he did a man hunt either. That was back in the early 90s.
I never understood what people get out of it.
Anyway, I don't think they have shot any dinosaurs lately.

Yeah I don't understand it.I don't think those people are "liberals"... just AmericansAlright, that's racist... Americans who haven't seen Jurassic Park.
Yea, I heard about certain hunting being permitted to cull the population and raise much needed cash. I just don't see how anyone who'd care to conserve wildlife would go shoot one to hang up. I mean, the ones they "culled" aren't cane toads.
A current non-military example is the US proposing to outlaw OPEC (the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries - basically the Arabs and a few others who meet periodically in Vienna) as an illegal cartel.
Now what on earth leads the US to think it has any right whatsoever to dictate to other countries how they do business?
If Saudi or the UAE or whoever wants to increase or reduce their production of oil then that's for them to decide not the US.
If the US thinks that's a good idea then they ought to be open to others doing the same. Eg they should have no problems if Australia informs the US that Australian gun laws will now apply throughout the US and likewise if somewhere like France decides that their labour laws now apply in the US. If it's good for the goose......
I seriously think that Trump is just going out of his way to upset anyone and everyone for the sake of upsetting them. Oddly that might just encourage peace since it puts pretty much everyone else in the same boat with a common problem.
Back to my seeing parallels with someone I've dealt with in real life, another common theme in both cases is the creation of chaos. In the case of Trump it seems that other world leaders have given up even pretending to know what's going on these days. Once the dust inevitably settles it will turn out that one or two knew all along what was going on and that the chaos was really just to divert attention and chew up the resources (time, money, lawyers, whatever) of those who might stand in the way.
