But then he started doing his job. I became a big fan. Best president in my 66 years.

But the truth in the Twain quote is that fooling someone doesn't impact their ego. Admitting you've been fooled forces you to get past a wounded ego. The older you get, the easier it is because you've grown acustomed to being wrong and, hopefully, admitting it. As your ego strengthens, it's easier. And there is a bid difference between a big ego and a strong ego.

BTW, your post was projection.
