I will say faking is also an art and don't forget he got his training from a president/father.

I see this happening in corporate environment all the time. They will speaks the right things, quickly pick on your analyses and run with it as their own, interrupt you midway just to make you feel little because they have power over you.

But when it comes to handing something impromptu they struggle. When they have to make a decision, they struggle. When it comes to execution, they usually fail horribly.

Sadly arrogant display of power is considered a sign of intelligence by some. I have seen a lot of such fakers so I don't believe in credentials until I see what they actually achieve.
