He's a populist. He gets attention throug demagoguery. Pandering is a part of that.

What is he hoping to gain by that, especially going rather far out of his way and otherwise comfortable life in doing so?
An egotistic boner.
You don’t think he had plenty enough attention (of the highest degree I’m sure) already existing in his life even before running in 2016? He felt it necessary to go this far out of his way to get more? I don’t buy it. In fact I don’t know how anyone could argue against the premise that he’s actually at a net loss in the area of the type of “positive” attention to which I assume you refer.

No, I don't believe he did. I believe people like him are like junkies, and they need more and more over time.

He is NOW, but he wants to feel the power that he was feeling when he was president. As powerful as he's been in the past, it was never anything compared to the power and adulation he got as president.
Really, your position is akin to someone saying, "Well, he's already a billionaire, why would he want more?" They just do.
