The standard thing here would be something like - "There's something wrong with this guy". But we know that. We've known that for a long time now.
And we know that he craves the attention so he'll do whatever weird thing he can think of to get it. Plus, we know he craves the attention because that's how he gains power and money - and money and power - and first one and then the other - and sometimes both at the same time.
So if we just blow him off, it could mean we're ignoring a signal of real danger.
We have to keep looking for the method of his madness, which may be nefarious (probable), or benign (doubtful), or just plain looney because there is, in fact, something wrong with that son of a bitch.
But we also get to watch out for his madness being used as cover for the extreme plutocratic shit that his henchmen and supporters are trying to inflict on us.
I hate living in interesting times.
