Ah! And I'm reminded that I wrote all of this in a piece back in 2016, just in case you doubt my fanatical devotion to repeating myself a jillion times.
The question of what Donald Trump “really believes” has no answer
It is a category error.

And remember, everything that everyone says about Trump -- that isn't "oh he's behaving like a dull toxic narcissist would behave" -- is revealing about them, not him. There's nothing to reveal about him. That's part of what terrifies people, I think! It really is just what it looks like.

I'll just say one more time: Trump is exactly what he appears, & no more. He's 100% transparent, 100% graspable. No mysteries, no depth.
He'll react to the next thing just like he reacts to everything, whether it's a celebrity death or a possible nuclear war. Go ahead & expect it.

More broadly: *anyone* who looks at Trump & sees *anything* other than dull toxic narcissism is projecting.
But that's been ... almost everyone! For 10+ years he's been 100% consistent & still people are imagining surprises & complexities! Still!

To drag it back to the example in question: if you thought, for even a second, that Trump would react to Reiner's death in any way *other* than how he did, that's because you were projecting. You were ascribing qualities that he doesn't have, expecting character he doesn't possess.

Because Trump is nothing, he is useful as a mirror. His success mirrors the dysfunctions of our politics & media. His support mirrors the resentments & fears of his supporters. His fearsome reputation mirrors the insecurities of the left.
He is showing us what *we* are.

This is true for everyone: the press, who ascribe him long-term plans & intentions. His supporters, who ascribe him some fealty to conservative ideology. His opponents, who ascribe him political knowledge & skill.
They are all telling you about themselves, not Trump. He contains nothing.

Anyone who looks at Trump & sees *more than nothing* -- whether good or bad -- is not telling you anything about Trump, they are telling you about themselves, their own worldview, what they want. They are ascribing content, plans, intentionality, self-awareness, where there is none.

Because he is, in effect, a nullity, because there's nothing to him, because he is transparent, it follows that anyone who sees content, sees depth, is capable of being surprised, is *projecting*.
This is why Trump is useful & somewhat fascinating: he is a blank canvas upon which people project.

Everything I concluded about him from the first time I saw him talk has held absolutely consistent in the ensuing 10+ years. Sometimes he can *shock* with the degree of his derangement, but he does not *surprise*. He responds, in 100% of cases, exactly, precisely as one (or at least I) would expect.

I want to emphasize this, and note that I have been saying it consistently for over 10 years now: *everything* about Trump is immediately visible. Everything. There's no there there, no depth, nothing hidden, no secrets. He's shallow as a puddle. It's all right there, immediate, obvious, glaring.

...something I've tried to articulate (unsuccessfully) many times. So I'll try again.
My core premise: everything you need to know about Trump -- his psychology, his likely behavior -- you can glean from watching him talk for, oh, 30 seconds or so. ANY 30 seconds will do. Pick 30 seconds at random.

The sociopathic tone of glee and mockery is bad enough, but that's really not the worst of it. He made up a claim that a Trump supporter had done it, *in order to say that would be good and justified.* Unambiguously telling his most insane cult followers that murdering his opponents makes him happy.
