Defending himself from charges that all stem from his toxic combination of overconfidence and stupidity.
tty fits in the lower left of the matrix below:
“There are only four types of officer. First, there are the lazy, stupid ones. Leave them alone, they do no harm…Second, there are the hard- working, intelligent ones. They make excellent staff officers, ensuring that every detail is properly considered. Third, there are the hard- working, stupid ones. These people are a menace and must be fired at once. They create irrelevant work for everybody. Finally, there are the intelligent, lazy ones. They are suited for the highest office.”
tty is not exactly hard working but he is energetic during his mania stages of bipolar disorder.
