Word: Trump as seen by a former Pence aide

 “There’s a term for a person who views other humans purely as instruments for his own advancement, and is unable to conceive of the idea of caring about them independent of his own self-interest: sociopath. The United States has had some terrible presidents before, but probably never a sociopathic one. When his own aides warn the public that he does not care if the people he is tasked with helping live or die, we should take their warnings with the utmost seriousness.” - Olivia Troye, former aide to Vice President Pence

Anyone aware of the evils of the drug war would probably be lying to themselves, as countless politicians have earned the description sociopath.
