Like all the academics and career govt and NGO types with whom he surrounds himself, he has never actually been held accountable for results… in those circles, you just talk a good game and everyone goes along because they are all the same. There is no accountability to reality, just to your like-minded peers.

And he has not a clue that anyone might expect actual accomplishments or results, that’s just so far from where he and his peers have been their whole lives. When someone objects about lack of results, they figure that person must be mentally ill, racist or have some other dark motive, because actually expecting results is just not in their cognitive universe.
