He could be sickened by it. But not surprised.
D - deny/deflect accountability
A - accuse/attack others of similar or past error
RVO - reverse victim and offender, just what it sounds like
High conflict persinalities, like Trump/Musk, use DARVO constantly to protect their fragile false-self. If they don't DARVO, they suffer ego death.
There's a reason he has been in politics for decades yet has never been elected to any office before.
So why is he chancellor candidate now? Party politics.

Not the kind of man we need right now.
And the American people seem to accept all that.
Europe must not follow!
