General Discussion

A person who freely admits they don't know everything and shows a willingness to learn can be educated. Because of his extreme narcissism, Trump is impervious to being educated. His fragile ego dictates that he ALWAYS has to be right, and those around him have to at least pretend that he is always right or else they are ejected from his presence (as all those he fired during his first administration found out, and many more will learn the hard way in this administration).

In short, his ignorance is a serious problem, and his narcissism makes it an insurmountable one. The irony is that things he does to cover his insecurity, such as bragging about how "smart" he is, refusing to take advice, and pretending he knows things he doesn't know, just make him look even more stupid than admitting the limits of his knowledge would.
