14. Friends? I find no evidence he has a single . . .

. . .relationship that could be characterized as a friendship. It's all transactional for him. He has said he likes "surrounding himself" with himself with less successful people who make him feel powerful (can't find the quote, but something along those lines). When he was president he threw himself a pity party, describing how he had lost all his "friends" because everyone was so deferential and formal with him.

The notion of Trump paling around with "friends of mine that are like English professors" is even more unbelievable than the notion that such a person would proclaim his "weaving" brilliant.
