It's such a joke that we're even having to discuss this. Has there ever been such a thin-skinned, self-absorbed leader of a major power before? Even his biggest fans have to admit, if only to themselves, that he acts like a toddler.
I’ve started to refer to it as the “Tony Soprano presidency”. It fits so much of the logic.
My vote is for 13 year old boy's fantasy presidency.
