GBC knew (and does know) how to present himself to others - he has enough insight to know how he SHOULD act, but does not really care about others. It is all about how do I need to act to get the most out of this situation. I imagine this is how he lived his life in his marriage, his social life, his work life, his cheating life, and his 'community leader/aspiring political' life. This can get very tiring, and can lead to escalation of antisocial behaviour over time. IMO
This combination in a person can be extremely dangerous - cares too much about own needs, and no care for other's needs. And danger doesn't just come in extremes - it can be dangerous to encounter these people in financial situations/partnerships, in the workplace, when balance of power is at play, etc. IMO
GBC has shown to be someone who can play the game. Intelligence is not always a protective factor from these types of people. Even emotional intelligence is not always a protective factor. If people like GBC can identify your weakness, you are almost certainly a goner (not literally). Look at the trail of destruction in his life. He has managed to fool people from all walks of life. And he can keep people dangling - at his beck and call. He can distance people when the heat is on, but still keep them on side. UNTIL others start to piece it all together, or the personal level of damage and cost reaches a limit that means they have to distance themselves from him.
Some people can also be attracted to the traits people like GBC show. They can be perceived as mysterious, powerful, intriguing.
This is all IMO.
