Having what looks like a normal girlfriend in Molly would explain this.
But it seems that the character is taking over the person or that the person was always like the character in many ways. The guy seems unstable and might be having an episode as he blows off steam on camera and maybe much more so off camera.
Persona or not, one thing another poster pointed out which shows what kind of person Troop really is was this example here. Back to the vlog where he met Andrew Neeme in the airport randomly, Andrew links Troop's vlog in his video, Trooper did nothing of the sort for Andrew.
(The irony is Trooper should be thanking Andrew on his knees for linking his channel. I believe around this time Andrew already shadowed Trooper's sub numbers.)
Meanwhile Andrew has almost double the subs as Trooper and some of Andrews videos have almost 200k views. Everyone of Andrew's vlogs his view count is at least his sub count.
Troop in comparison is getting 8-10k views in some vids/10-15k in others compared to his 25k sub level. So most of the time he does not reach his sub count in views.
Anyway back to the original observation, in this scenario Troop hates on the competition and doesn't embrace the comradery.
