Donny made his millions knowing how people think and feel and how to read them. Unless Cohen is intentionally leading Deutsch to draw wrong conclusions, my money is on what Deutsch thinks.

believes that everything he does is wonderful!

He isn't "lying" or even "exaggerating" in the usual sense when he brags about himself and casts his horrible behavior in what he thinks is a good light.

In my opinion, he has a mental condition that allows him to justify horrible behavior in his mind, or if he can't do that, to convince himself that it is actually good behavior or even, failing all else, to lie to himself and convince himself that he didn't do the horrible deed in the first place.

He has illusions of grandeur and illusions of goodness. And his voters believe in those illusions just like he does.

It's sort of a form of wishful thinking in my opinion.

I've been convinced of that for nearly 2 years, dating to the bus video, and this is further verification. If the border issue were all talk, he'd ignore it in confidence he could lie his way out of it. Only videos matter.

He's not overly worried about Cohen or Mueller because he knows it will be allegations but nothing on video. I don't even think audio bothers him a hell of a lot, because he can always convince the winger morons including many in Congress that it was edited or invented.

The 5th Avenue shooting murder would need to be in close range video proof to bother Trump at all

… and was surprised at the lack of anything new from Donny Deutsch. I thought going on with Ari meant something bigger... my take is that Deutsch is advising Cohen to cooperate and Cohen has admitted to Deutsch there are damaging things he knows first-hand. Maybe Cohen's "important" place in "history" is being planned for a certain time, to have the most impact.
