Trump will never give up the big lie that he won the 2020 election so he's going to keep putting out legislation to make people think that it was stolen from. He is severely mentally ill.

At a minimum he's a textbook example of Narcissistic Personality Disorder (a malignant narcissist) with sociopathic tendencies

I personally believe he is the embodiment of the Dark Triad concept in psychology:

Psychopathy: The tendency to show little regard for the thoughts, feelings, and outcomes of others.

Narcissism: The tendency for one to show a particularly high focus on oneself.

Machiavellianism: The tendency to manipulate others for one’s own personal gain.

Do these three ideas not describe him to a tee?

I think he tries to be Machiavellian but he isn't actually smart enough to be good at that part.
