I must be a moron...

2. I don't know whether Trump really believes that "better, faster, cheaper" is possible,

but he acts like he does - or else he believes in promoting the illusion. Everything he does seems to be designed for maximum flash, put together in a hurry, and done with sloppy workmanship that allows him to grift way beyond the true cost of the project. He wanted Qatar Force One just because he could have it painted with the design he liked and all blinged up in the interior, and he could get it quickly. The fact that it wasn't safe didn't seem to bother him, odd considering that he has his panties in such a knot about his personal security that he demands a fortress ballroom, but either he doesn't believe the Secret Service or is willing to risk the possibility of security breaches or even the lack of anti-missile capabilities because he loves the look of the thing so much.
