Theologically, experienced exorcists tell us there is such a thing as "perfect possession" by a demon. Whereas in most cases, a person's body is possessed against their will, in "perfect possession," a person voluntarily gives over themselves to Satan or other demons. He may appear normal on the outside but his will is entirely under control of the demonic.
Psychologically, there are such things as sociopaths. A sociopath is a person with a psychopathic personality whose behavior is antisocial, often criminal, and who lacks a sense of moral responsibility or social conscience.
I'd be willing to believe he was one or the other of these.

The demonic, vile Botoxian that’s pretending to be Speaker of the House could probably be a classic example of “perfect possession”. Whatever it is, it ain’t human anymore...maybe just in looks only.
Everything has two explanations, one scientific one divine. It is up to us to choose which we believe.
