Here's a thing about ALL THE THINGS relating to the current US-American government:

There is no person on this planet who dwells in deeper existential dread at the idea of the world continuing on after his death than Donald J. Trump. Superlative narcissist that he is, he faces the idea of his non-existence as a Lovecraftian protagonist would stand staring at the eldritch horror that is Cthulhu.

So he must grab everything he can to keep himself safe: a perpetual juvenile wrapping himself in a security blanket of wealth, prestige, instant gratification of every whim, and the power to burn down the lives of anyone he wants to.

And he hopes that after his death, that conflagration will continue. If *he* cannot be, then no one else should *be*, either.

It is altogether pathetic and pitiful -- and the worst part is that we all have to suffer because of his sorry ass.

@courtcan A man so self-centered, he would have the whole planet as his funerary pyre.
