Considering that he was told multiple times and that there appears to be proof he admitted it which will or will not come out at trial....
Your defense of him seems to be that he's a moron.
While I agree he's a moron, he is also a sociopath, because he is incapable of experiencing guilt. He has said that no one knows more than him on scores of topics.
Do you believe what he says in the video?
Have you ever known of any human being who has ever said similar things?
In real life, let's say at work or in a social setting, you met someone who said these things to you, you know you'd think he's the single biggest idiot and ahole you had ever met.
How can you then want him in charge of everything?
