He sees things as black and white and has no feeling for nuance, and I don't think he has the patience to try to understand complicated systems. He needs to have situations broken into familiar, easily understood narratives, which leads to poor understanding of the larger situation and therefore poor decisions and poor outcomes.

lurkette, you took the words right out of my mouth. It's very frightening to see him doing what he's doing, and he just cannot grasp what the consequences might be. If anyone is 'Evil', it might be those behind him, but him, he's just frighteningly stupid.
