4. in the first week of his presidency...
...I wrote that America was the victim of the worst possible confluence of family dynamics. A cold, withholding mother who treated W as if he were both flawed and special. A successful but absent father. A more gifted and favored younger sibling. A string of failures requiring family interventions. Obvious narcissism. Then flatterers who gave him unlimited power while manipulating him and feeding his sick ego.

All the elements of a great tragedy. I'm surprised he hasn't blown up the whole world just because he could.
