If you want to get a better understanding of these disorders, you can check out Dr. Les Carter from the youtube channel Surviving Narcissism. He has a very informative video on the Dark Triad, which is one part fascinating and two parts terrifying.
Just look at @jaketapper.bsky.social! Can’t sell a book without trashing another human being and stoking lies and hatred. And when we lash out, we’re the “dumb fucks”. Beta white male mediocrity on full display! Get your soapbox Tapper, grab Musk can start a pity party tour of “Why America Hates Us”
We need to create a society that does not tolerate this behavior in workplaces, and we need to stop telling people to keep their heads down or move on when they encounter it! Call it out as unacceptable and marginalize it in society.
I spent 20 years working for top executives in a Fortune 100 company. One thing I learned was: That's an environment that rewards narcissism and power obsessions. Hard to create a healthier society in politics when it's rampant in all kinds of workplaces and even families.
To so many of us there is no facade with Trump. He tells us who he is every single day. Every word, every facial expression, every action..it's pretty clear and what he is to me.
it does not take much "research" to determine what Trumpy is - it takes a media willing to publish all the public records that define Trumpy as a psychopath😠
Most people will have some, that's normal. For example, impulsivity. It's when you start checking off the majority of the list you have the potential for real sociopathy, critically, imho, lack of empathy, something that can curb excessive/harmful behavior in the "normal" population.
The clown & his misfits fit the profile.None are trying to hide it now that they have been given a platform. Hiring these “mentally disturbed” allows them to act out. Animal killer Brunette Barbie is a great example. As is leather face Ken & his brain worm….the list of examples is long & egregious.
I imagine everyone walks out of the room shaking their head after meeting with him. Then they head right to their check book thinking maybe that is a new way to fleece people and i want to get-in on the groundfloor
There are two kinds of thinkers: plausible and critical. Plausible gravitate toward information that confirms their existing beliefs and cling to it. Critical thinkers, seek out a range of perspectives, weigh the evidence—i.e., scientific, factual—before forming conclusions. Trump is a plausible.
I think the root of Donald Trump’s ire: his hate of liberal society that gives people choices - choices that he never had the courage to make -the gaudy fake glitter, the inability to appreciate and respect women for their worth, his nastiness - it all adds up: he is a repressed homosexual.
I am not ascribing those attributes to gay people - I’m ascribing them to the effects of lifelong repression of the true self - like how so many priests who were repressed homosexuals vented their repression in acts of abuse against children, or how Nazi SS abused and murdered millions
So true. I was married to one for 25 yrs and then dated one for a period of time and went thru hell to finally get him out of my life-and almost lost my life in the process.
They also ruin your desire to ever try again.
My experience, fortunately, was not romantic. I only truly felt free once I understood (admitted to myself) what made me susceptible to the monster to begin with.
It seriously is. I lived with narcissistic abuse for years & I am still learning how to cope with it. I'm in a very loving relationship now, but I still find myself nervous about making small choices on my own & reflexively apologizing for stupid stuff. It fucks w/you & causes trust issues.
Also, constantly exposing them to the public with the truth, even shutting them up with it to the point they will be totally embarrassed and humiliated, can be a coordinated plan.
ALWAYS!! George is correct. The one I knew absolutely adored this aspect of being an at least two-faced church employee. He loves assuming false identities and gaslighting people
Thanks Karen, but I think you’ll find that the American people AND, most of the rest of the world are quite some years ahead of you.
In fact we’ve been dealing with this since 2016.
Can’t mention any names of course but …

If people voted for Chump knowing who he is, that’s immoral. If they voted for him without making sure they knew who he is, that’s also immoral. You could argue “garbage in, garbage out,” but the lies were so blatant and the hate so visceral they should have known to look elsewhere. #change
If you’re not familiar with it, “A psychological analysis of Adolf Hitler” is worth reading. It was a top-secret book, written by the OSS during World War II. Many observations seem directly applicable to Trump.
HELLO! We are fucking tired of all the analysis on Trump and whatever his issues are. We KNOW who he is...WHAT he is. People voted for this. GAWD. Stop it! When will the media STOP covering the Idiot?
And yet the republican reps give him a free ride and the keys to destroy the country. This doesn’t even address the obvious cognitive declines. Must be nice living with blinders on so you can’t see everything as it burns down.
In addition to being a pathological narcissist, I believe Trump also suffers from Oppositional Defiance Disorder. And Megalomania. And Dementia. And Psychopathy and Sociopathy.

Trump is a Hannibal wanna-be.

He is PROUDLY waiving his greed, fascism, racism, and overall corruption in our faces DAILY.
Worse, OUR CONGRESS is letting him get away with it!!
How do we stop him and his enablers?
Bad combination, in any case.
Vote ‘Trumpism’ (MAGA) Out
