He doesn't care or he himself is currently being directly manipulated. I'd say the closest guy to be doing this type of stuff to him is Stephen Miller.

He really believes those tattoos say MS-13 on the knuckles. He really believes. He is fully fully convinced. And he is quite happy to lecture the reporter in length and detail about how real it is. He believes.

So who fed him the picture? Who's keeping the real information from him? We've seen the cabinet meeting how they lie to him continuously. I'm never sure if it's because he simply likes being lied to in happy terms or they actually are manipulating him.

They are manipulating him. At least someone is.
