He seems to be deep into denial. I can’t imagine what’s going on in his mind right now.

I think that based on his enthusiasm to invest in Elon's takeover of Twitter he thought he was a big dog. He thinks he's a celebrity billionaire. He's still calling people to invest in his companies, which is like lighting money on fire because it's all going to be withdrawn immediately.
He is clueless.

I would pay to hear some of these conversations of him asking for more money right now. I wonder if people just start laughing or try to tell him the truth.

Could you explain what you meant by this?

Well there is people who would still invest in him with the condition of tighter control / regulation despite already losing money in this shitshow :-D. But it's probably just a crazy coping mechanism for being involved:

You will get invaded. Ecuador,Iran, Venezuella(maybe not so much there) or Russia are better.

I’d probably just up my dosage if I were in his position. This looks like a terrible moment to sober up.

It appears that he may have upped his dosage. And him acting like he can recover is from the drugs. To act like this after clearly committing crimes visible by tens of millions of people, and just getting torn apart for it online. I wish I was this confident!

I’m over a decade sober, but fyi this is available to you if you just buy some meth or bath salts!

That’s all I can conjure too. Or he’s calling in his political donations, etc.

Massive amounts of Selegiline, probably.
