Idk, but I think you'd have to go a lot higher have that. Like, your parents know what an app is. Maybe your grandparents don't, but mine do. So I think it would basically have to be like people over 70 or something

So you're saying, when Trump says "most people" he means "me " but has to make it sound like he's not alone in any thinking ?

100% of the time he means himself but not for that reason.

he does this because he hasn't developed theory of mind. because he doesn't care about other people enough to do that.

Yes exactly. When he says "people," e.g. "people are saying, everyone says, etc" or "you" or whatever, he means him. Additionally most accusations are admissions. People are eating cats? He's probably eating cats. People are committing sex crimes? He's committing sex crimes. People don't know what an app is? He doesn't know what an app is, etc.
