How is it "masterful" when it is so transparently OBVIOUS? He isn't masterful. He is terrified/scared to death/fraidy-cat frightened. Masterful? Clearly not. How scared is he really? What other absurd lies will he tell to try to get this monkey of his own making off his back? We are watching. We know what is going here. That he thinks we don't is seriously the best example of how he thinks he is smarter than anyone thereby underestimating everyone and proving he isn't. :(
