Funny thing is that in interview he brags about been a chess player and therefore smart. If you play like that in my part of the world you would be barred from playing forever.
He's surrounded by hangers on most of the time whose primary function is to massage his ego. You play on chess.com ?

On some John Inverdale fronted BBC show of the noughties he played Steve Davis at speed chess and lost his queen in about 5 moves. They cut away before we saw him bludgeoned.
