(53,410 posts)Hes always been cunning and mean, and hes a con man, totally sold on his own inflated opinion of himself and of everyone else being stupidly gullible. He knows how he can best manipulate low intelligence, greedy people because deep down hes just like them.
And it works. He is a master at it, just like he knew himself to be. But, and this is his downfall, he never understood anyone who isnt either low intelligence, greedy or gullible. He just assumed those people were in the minority and could easily be overcome. As it turns out he underestimated the numbers of people who are intelligent enough to see what he is.
In the end he will be defeated by his own ignorance of human nature. But he wont learn anything useful, just like he never learned in 7 decades. At best he will die a bitter old man feeling he was cheated of his rightful rewards.
