Trump is obviously trolling everyone with his tweets. He's trying to get a rise out of people. He knows it gets him all the attention, even if it's negative. Remember, there's no such thing as bad publicity.

I can't believe that people can't see this.

If it was only the tweets, then okay.  That would be a terrible plan, executed by a person who cares nothing for the office he represents, but sure, he would not necessarily be an idiot, just pretending to be an idiot.  But it's not just the tweets.  Every piece of evidence we have about his thoughts, words, and actions paints a fairly consistent picture of an ignorant man with an ego that requires him to think he knows everything; thus he has no incentive to learn anything.  In his own mind he is never wrong; thus he can never acknowledge even the most easily correctable or insignificant mistakes. 

And if it's still a lie despite all this, but a lie that he acts out consistently throughout every day of his presidency—is that really any better for the country?
