He interprets boos as cheers and hatred as victory.

He truly believes he is "bigger than Elvis", greater than Lincoln, more respected than Obama.

On the other hand, he has ascended to the position of most powerful person on Earth, he has billions of dollars, lives in golden palaces, and he is surrounded by sycophants who shamelessly stroke his ego 24/7. I reckon in some minds this makes him a winner. It certainly does in his mind.
