"He can't get past himself and his own insecurities"
Is there any more vivid a dissection of the Donald brain that depicts what it is than his obsession with BEING RIGHT ABOUT ALABAMA? Or words to that effect said by a network anchor? Not verbatim but that's the gist of it.
He can't be briefed on anything. No information can go into him. Nothing gets through his conviction that he is right and everyone else is wrong.
It shows the depth of his insecurity and his terror at being caught being wrong.
The extremely stable genius is freaking out.
