He responds to literally every slight; perceived or real as well. He cares what people think. We can't say for sure why that is, and we both have are hunches as to why. You're right though... He doesn't care about a lot of things. He's like a teenage girl. He cares what people think about him.

And that is very worrisome. It makes him easy to play by foreign adversaries.

He doesn't care what ALL people think, but he wants to have a rep, a "power" brand, like Putin and Xi. So he cannot appear "weak."

That means people who challenge his knowledge or pose tough questions quickly unsettle him--and he feels weak and threatened then. He can only control the situation by lashing out ("You know NOTHING about my energy!") or walking out of the room, or keeping Fauci types off the same stage.

I think his niece laid it out pretty well in her interviews with Maddow and Cuomo.
