There is no doubt that he is mentally ill. He obviously manifests enough characteristics of both narcissistic personality disorder and antisocial personality disorder to be diagnosed. He's a picture perfect psychopathic narcissist.

-- Lies and distorts reality to rationalize and justify his wrongful conduct.
-- Puffs up his over-inflated ego by stereotyping and denigrating those he sees as "out-groups."
-- Weaves grandiose tales of his fearsome power, omnipotence, and unequaled brilliance.
-- Is proudly abrasive and offensive.
-- Takes delight in humiliating and embarrassing others
-- Reacts to any perceived slight to his own person, appearance, or accomplishments aggressively and vindictively.
-- Has a sense of entitlement that appears to know no bounds.
-- Exhibits a callous disregard for others.
