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.
If "doing his job" is grifting the office monetarily and otherwise, grasping personal power as an entitled autocrat, and prioritizing his power thru reelection over all else while diminishing the prestige of the office and the country, he has certainly done that.
