Is there such a thing as an EQ genius? 🤔
Conversation
I'd challenge that it's "at will" though... more like he can't help himself. He can't switch to ego/superego mode when those are optimal.

yeah, gotta say he seems to have two states, REROUTE ALL POWER TO ID and some gradual reassertion of the ego after the crisis has passed
does being a one-trick pony count as genius if the trick is good enough?
I don't think so. It's a regular superego, just conditioned by long immersion in a very different training set than you or me (someone labeled it the rat-pack era consciousness... glitz/glamor/casino crap). You forget he's 70. You can see more raw versions in old videos.

yeah, he has the precise superego of somebody who has never valued anything but being a winner as that concept is constructed by a white American male with an IQ of 103 in the year 1947
He fits an older notion of genius, as a separate entity that can possess you and channel larger forces through you. Some say Mozart didn't so much compose as channel music from the heavens. Trump's genius is channeling grievances from the zombie horde.
