I think the jury may put these hand-in-hand, not either/or.

"if the government was successful in getting the jury to view Elgindy as a greedy, power-hungry, manipulative con artist, then they'll find fault is just about everything he did. If, instead, they view him as a greedy, power-hungry, manipulative egotist,"

A recent example (admittedly a far-removed example) is the Scott Peterson murder trial. The physical evidence was that Scott was a real creep. Physical evidence of the murder itself was lacking. Emotion and "gut feeling" can't be 100% removed from the jury. It may come down to the jury viewing him as a greedy, power-hungry, manipulative egotist, therefore,... con artist.
