I’m pretty sure he is doing it on purpose now.
He is trying to destroy the country. No one can be that stupid.
The billionaires that he works for are actively trying to destroy the country so that they can establish their feudal kingdoms.
Feudalism is based on Chivalry where the Lords have a mutual responsibility to their subjects and serfs.
They are not trying to create feudal kingdoms, they are trying to establish little dictatorships.
That's the theory. However, as the European feudal lords answered to noone but maybe a king or the pope, they could, and did, abuse their absolute power over their serfs. It was literally an honor system where the consent of the governed was frequently ignored until rebellion occurred.
I could see argument for both sides of that. I lean towards feudalism being the goal as there is an explicit desire for serfdom and rank based upon wealth (even though they seem to ignite the fact that most of their wealth is in investments in the stock market, etc that would become meaningless if the nation-state were to cease to exist).
