The Most Dangerous Idiot In The Room Here is a man who once rang a New York newspaper under a fake name to tell them how extraordinarily wealthy he was. Not because he needed anything. Not because there was a point to be made. Simply because the silence in his own head had become unbearable without someone, anyone, confirming that he existed and that he was tremendous. Donald Trump is, by any reasonable measure, the most catastrophically self-regarding human being ever to be handed the nuclear codes. And I have met some truly spectacular idiots in my time. I once watched a man try to overtake a lorry on a blind corner in a Robin Reliant. Trump makes that man look like a careful, considered intellectual. The thing about genuinely dangerous people is that they are usually more threatening to their friends than their enemies. Trump has torched more alliances, betrayed more loyalists and humiliated more supporters than any foreign adversary could dream of. He opened Pandora’s box across the Middle East with the casual confidence of someone who has never actually read about the Middle East. Or anything else, for that matter. The plan, as far as anyone could tell, was to fly in, rearrange the furniture and leave with a deal so beautiful it would make your eyes water. What actually happened is what always happens when a man with no knowledge and no patience tries to solve a problem that has been fermenting since before America existed. Almost a billion people in allied nations looked at what was happening and reached the same conclusion simultaneously: this man is not well, we have nothing in common with him, and he understands nothing about anything. He calls himself a Christian. A deeply devout one, apparently. Although when asked his favourite Bible verse, he declines to share it. Because it is personal. Which is an interesting position for a man who has made absolutely everything else about himself a matter of loud, relentless, exhausting public record. The verse is personal. The fraud trials were not. The affairs were not. The bankruptcies were not. The fake newspaper calls were not. But the Bible verse. That stays between him and God. Which tells you everything, really.
