I wonder... why is this such an incongruous thought? I can’t imagine Trump ever “collecting” anything Pinterest style. Not even his own press clippings or photos of golden things with Trump logo on them. He primarily uses those things as currency to bid for live attention.

I don’t think he’s ever been in interested in things for their own sake, only as a means to drive validating attention towards himself. I can’t even see him collecting photos of people he feels wronged by and means to take revenge on. Those would be ever-present live memories.

This may be why he managed to get a bit richer than he started. He’s not actually materialist/hedonist. He eats and drinks tastelessly. He wears expensive clothes to look good, not because he appreciates them. A kind of dark-ascetic. Even invisible money doesn’t interest him.

This would imply a strong sense of object permanence. His instrumental intelligence seems to be purely situational and tactical. The rest, id and pure disposition.
