I actually think he did. And THAT would be reminiscent of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Not good.

#1 Study his mentors (Cohn, McMahon, Burnett) in earnest.
#2 Study his methods (memes, lowest common denominator, pitting people/groups against each other, complaining)
#3 Study his madness (shock and awe/unpredictability, *honesty)
