Just because he's publicly stated all experts are terrible doesn't mean he doesn't have them now nor will not in the future. If he didn't listen to other people

Just because he's publicly stated all experts are terrible doesn't mean he doesn't have them now nor will not in the future. If he didn't listen to other people and their opinions then I seriously doubt he would be where he is today. He's just letting his ego speak for him.
As for your quote, I could easily explain that is him saying he would do better than previous administrations without anyone providing input, before he seeks such input. He will do better without them, and he could do even better than that with them.
