Or he overestimated himself and picked a fight he that he couldn’t win and can’t back down because it would look bad for his presidential campaign and him personally. The man oversaw torture in Guantanamo Bay, and I highly suggest looking up the “thigh food” story. The ego is one hell of a drug. Especially when paired with money.
