7. Also, he lives to crush people and institutions as a sign of his power.

I can't remember where I read it, but there was an interview with someone who knew him as a child. They described him as the kid who, if another kid made a sand castle or a block tower, he had to kick it down.

His habit of not paying companies that dealt with him in business so they were ruined, and his endless lawsuits that forced companies to deal with him or go bankrupt, were all versions of this same impulse. He's truly sick, and his motives are evil. He wants to crush this country, maybe because it helps Putin, but mostly because it shows he has the power to do it.

This is what he has always wanted.
