He’s perfectly capable of picturing a massive funeral with thousands of people weeping, a 50-foot-high portrait of himself in a golden frame, every single world leader AND all his political enemies getting up to the lectern to say “we should have appreciated him more, he was truly the best man the world has ever known”…and himself sitting there, enjoying it.
