I’ve been saying for about a year now that Barry is all about using the techniques from the book The Secret. I read it and while there are some fairly good suggestions it is pretty much (mostly) new age fluff...BUT by reading it it is extremely obvious that he believes he is Prez.-the plane, Prez seal, etc...Oprah is really big on “manifesting” and “creating your own reality”and so on..gotta go...later night than usual...with some beverages...coffee has not kicked in yet...
Agreed - the seals are a ‘tell’ about BO’s insecurities.
He must by need surround himself with identifiers to warn people he is seriously into what he is preaching and does not welcome naysayers.
This too is actually done in fear and defense mechanisms because if someone puts a crack in his armor - he may never seal it again. He is intelligent enough to know there are many better at his game of manipulation who see him for what he is.
Team BO - the solo player. No doubt he will design presidential and white house regalia such as robes, hats, and symbols as well as jewelry - to enhance his royal goals.
(Much like animals in the wild leave their scented spray.)
