He got to be a star on a big stage and he found it suited him quite well. If you watch Trump video clips pre-Apprentice and post-Apprentice, you see a very different man. A relatively soft spoken man became very loud, boisterous, and cartoonish. Apparently on the show's set, he was an absolute tyrant, an indication of what kind of president he would be.
I understand that some people are more self-absorbed than others, but I've never seen anyone quite like Trump. The insecurity and defensiveness is alarming.
