My theory is that a general lack of empathy caused his racist mindset combined with his his perceived superiority caused by his political power results in him not giving a fuck.

I’m more interested in why the nation thought that voting for a man who is (at least) politically retarded would have been a great thing in any way, shape or form. Like no one would hire someone who has never touched a computer in their life as CTO of some company; but we would vote Donald trump into one of the most powerful positions in the nation with no real credentials, experience or education in law and governance at all. Baffles me.

I see you have not met many CTOs, unfortunately.
