“I don’t think so” — how arrogant of a statement that is. Someone is telling you what is happening, what they are seeing and verifying and your response isn’t “I’ll look in to that” or such but rather “I don’t think so” like you truly know everything there is to know. I know it’s a microcosm of everything going on but still.

He's such a malignant narcissist that he actually thinks reality is whatever he wants it to be. Same reason he thought he could redirect a hurricane with a sharpie.
