His entire life has been based around his perception of what people above him think of him. That’s why he plastered the oval office with garish gold leaf everywhere. He thinks it will impress people like putin and erdoğan and kim . Even more so because he’s showing that he has the power to spend lavishly on stuff the country doesn’t want or need because that’s what dictators do.
You missed another thing he loves doing. He smashed an historical building in the early '70s in NYC during the starting of his “real estate” career. He smashed an historical building while other people were offering to pay to have the historical artifacts properly recovered. His excuse at the time? “It would have been too expensive.” Meanwhile he knew it would have been free to him, it just would have taken 6-8 months later for him to break ground.
He’s continued desecrating any historical site he can get his hands on, to this day.

He gets off on destroying historical monuments.
This immediately made me read your comment in a strong French accent
(At least in my dialect, word-initial h’s are pronounced as a consonant. That means it would be “a historical” instead of “an”)
…because he can. And nobody will stop him.
