That's what you end up with when you take a fairly intelligent person and bang it into their head that they're the "smartest person in the room". He believes his own legend and that's the source of his downfall.



To the extent that this applies to all elected officials, presidents, princes, primates, and potentates, I couldn't agree more.

On the other hand, it also applies to most appointed officials, corporate heads, gangstas, preachers, headshrinkers, celebrities, and shysters, so what's the fucking difference?
