Struck me just now - thinking of that bizarre presser - he is spewing his own dogma.

He fancies himself the head of some weirdo trump religion - which is actually horrifying. Those that are suckered by it - there is no connecting with them at all. It is the formation of some twisted cult.

It is set up so that his words are THE truth. Anything else are lies. He is a victim.

This is so weird it is hard to wrap my head around it.

Lot of religious overtones with him as the one and only savior.

started a religion (maybe that's what he has done) rather than run for president.
