It was a bunch of marketing hype all along, apparently. The more he's revealed who he actually is, the less most people believe that he's really good at much of anything besides hype and being pretentious. The past decade of fawning news articles about how he's the smartest and most hard working person in the entire world is even more nauseating now, in retrospect.
I believe he's only good at wasting money and destroying livelihoods. With 200 billion he should've fucked off somewhere as he's clearly not useful for anything. Even Zuckerberg and Bezos have their value.
He was good at publicity and being a front man... but now his deranged political obsessions have ruined that. I can't imagine why someone would have enough FU money for 1000 people, but be so obsessed with forcing his political will on everyone that he doesn't just fuck off and enjoy being rich. Drunk on power, I guess.
