I guess so. There is more there that he conveys. He's equated sad with pathetic. It's part of his sense of superiority that is part of his narcissistic personality. For example, when he proclaims his reverence for women, he does so in terms of relative reverence: "No one respect's women more than I do".  As a narcissist, he thinks that the value of one's intent is how it ranks among others. He could say: "I think  as a culture there are many areas where we can all show more respect for women."
He did this with the Jews too: “I am the least anti-Semitic person that you’ve ever seen in your entire life.”
