If you want to understand Trump declaring victory, it's important to understand this was pioneered in 1986 by Diego Maradona.

Like Trump, Maradona was extremely gifted and with very 'flexible' ethics. He learned this as a kid & saw what he did as cunning, not cheating. In other words: if you can get referees to cover for you, it's part of the 'meta-game' to manipulate the refs.
