Sorry but this has nothing to do with Obama.
FIRST OF ALL. I apologize for this ginormous post. I realize that it's huge and is full of a lot of information but I believe that people need to see what Trump has been doing/is capable of doing or being. If you are patient and read it, you'll see how that this is him and that it's a possible severe risk. I've been trying to reduce the size of my posts to make them more readable and interesting but this one I just can't do that with. Please forgive a man for just trying to get the truth to you (even if it involves some BOLD etc(I apologize 3ml, Cog, Sorb, Superbeast, addy, guyfromWinnipeg, Bull,Bagua, mt666tm,resilient and everyone I've missed etc etc!!! I don't know how to make it shorter) . I truly believe that people should take a couple of minutes to read this and judge for themselves about how serious a flaw this is.
If you want to talk about something that is truly dangerous, then let's talk about Trumps' narcissism. In his position, such a huge mental flaw makes him extremely dangerous.
What is narcissistic personality disorder (NPD)?
The word narcissism gets tossed around a lot in our selfie-obsessed, celebrity-driven culture, often to describe someone who seems excessively vain or full of themselves.
- It’s more accurate to say that people with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) are in love with an idealized, grandiose image of themselves.
- And they’re in love with this inflated self-image precisely because it allows them to avoid deep feelings of insecurity.
- a pattern of self-centred, arrogant thinking and behaviour,
- a lack of empathy and consideration for other people, ***this is the biggy.
- an excessive need for admiration.
- cocky, manipulative, selfish, patronizing, and demanding.
- extremely resistant to changing their behaviour, even when it’s causing them problems.
- the tendency is to turn the blame on to others. Donald Trump has not taken responsibility for ONE single negative thing he has caused but has used Obama relentlessly. He has not apologized ONCE in his entire presidency. With his recent COVID failures, he had several gigantic mistakes in what he told people as far is how many and expectations of not just deaths/sickness but his reporting of what the stock market would do which cost people billions based on his flawed boasting of how the markets were "about to rebound".
- they are extremely sensitive and react badly to even the slightest criticisms, disagreements, or perceived slights, which they view as personal attacks.
- it’s often easier just to go along with their demands to avoid the coldness and rages.
- Grandiosity is the defining characteristic of narcissism.
- believe they are unique or “special” and can only be understood by other special people. (The best example of this was him calling himself "The chosen one")
- believe that they’re better than everyone else and expect recognition as such—even when they’ve done nothing to earn it.
- often exaggerate or outright lie about their achievements and talents. (let's just use the last one "I called it a pandemic before anybody else thought it a pandemic"...when he refused to even consider that anybody was going to die from COVID during the period he now says he considered COVID a pandemic.
-spin self-glorifying fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, attractiveness, and ideal love that make them feel special and in control. These fantasies protect them from feelings of inner emptiness and shame, so facts and opinions that contradict them are ignored or rationalized away.
- anything that threatens to burst the fantasy bubble is met with extreme defensiveness and even rage, so those around the narcissist learn to tread carefully around their denial of reality. ***the danger of this to a horrible real world response should be terrifying to people.
- the occasional compliment is not enough. Narcissists need constant food for their ego, so they surround themselves with people who are willing to cater to their obsessive craving for affirmation. These relationships are very one-sided. It’s all about what the admirer can do for the narcissist, never the other way around. If there is ever an interruption or diminishment in the admirer’s attention and praise, the narcissist treats it as a betrayal. ***over 3 1/2 years as president, firings, resignations from a position or people just plain quitting within close range to him are over five hundred (500) people. This number is simply ludicrous.
- because they consider themselves special, narcissists expect favourable treatment as their due. They truly believe that whatever they want, they should get. They also expect the people around them to automatically comply with their every wish and whim. That is their only value. If you don’t anticipate and meet their every need, then you’re useless.
- Narcissists never develop the ability to identify with the feelings of others—to put themselves in other people’s shoes. In other words, they lack empathy. In many ways, they view the people in their lives as objects—there to serve their needs.
-can be very magnetic and charming. They are very good at creating a fantastical, flattering self-image that draw us in. We’re attracted to their apparent confidence and lofty dreams—and the shakier our own self-esteem, the more seductive the allure. It’s easy to get caught up in their web, thinking that they will fulfill our longing to feel more important, more alive. But it’s just a fantasy and a costly one at that. (Constant MAGA rallies anybody???)
- aren’t looking for partners; they’re looking for obedient admirers. Your sole value to the narcissist is as someone who can tell them how great they are to prop up their insatiable ego. Your desires and feelings don’t count.
- If they lie, manipulate, hurt, and disrespects others, he or she will eventually treat you the same way. Don’t fall for the fantasy that you’re different and will be spared.
- they don’t recognize you as someone who exists outside of their own needs. Because of this, narcissists regularly violate the boundaries of others. What’s more, they do so with an absolute sense of entitlement.
- To protect themselves from feelings of inferiority and shame, narcissists must always deny their shortcomings, cruelties, and mistakes. Often, they will do so by projecting their own faults on to others.
- They don’t live in reality, and that includes their views of other people. Don’t let their shame and blame game undermine your self-esteem. Refuse to accept undeserved responsibility, blame, or criticism. That negativity is the narcissist’s to keep.
- when attacked, the natural instinct is to defend yourself and prove the narcissist wrong. But no matter how rational you are or how sound your argument, they are unlikely to hear you. And arguing the point may escalate the situation in a very unpleasant way. Don’t waste your breath. Simply tell the narcissist you disagree with their assessment, then move on.
- they don’t think twice about taking advantage of others to achieve their own ends. Sometimes this interpersonal exploitation is malicious, but often it is simply oblivious. Narcissists simply don’t think about how their behaviour affects others. And if you point it out, they still won’t truly get it. The only thing they understand is their own needs.
I made this part bold because I think its extremely concerning. He has no shame and zero fucks about his behaviour which just isn't normal. Please don't hate me because of the boldness pffft.
-Threatened by people who don’t kowtow to them or who challenge them in any way. Their defence mechanism is contempt. The only way to neutralize the threat and prop up their own sagging ego is to put those people down. They may do it in a patronizing or dismissive way as if to demonstrate how little the other person means to them. Or they may go on the attack with insults, name-calling, bullying and threats to force the other person back into line.
Trump does this several times a day in his Twitter feed "Sleepy Joe Biden, Crooked Hillary, "No nothing Democrats" Skank Hillary etc etc. If you want to see how many immature, childish, racist and just nasty things Trump has called people and places, go to:
Click HERE for the list of SIX HUNDRED derogatory names for Men/Women/Children/Places that Donald Trump has said to insult verbally in person or on Twitter as of June 17, 2020 during his presidency. NOTE>The list generally requires updating daily.)
He makes decisions that are not in consideration of the men and women that might be where he's bombing. The Iranian general Qassem Soleimani needed to die however Trump killed him without consulting the proper channels. It was a rogue hit and they spent days giving different and different reasons why it needed to be done.
Lastly, I hope that the people who didn't go cross-eyed (or back to hating me because of the post) reading my post can take this as a positive beginning of a mental health/medical discussion of the American President. This is just his narcissism. What about all the other issues he has going on?(maybe he has dementia which will either be a slow or a quick degrade of his total mental state).
PEACE BROTHERS! Make the love, not the war on ole LePsyber!
I couldn’t be bothered to read all that.
I don’t even live in the USA
Truth or Fiction
I don’t give a rats ass.
Our country has a far worse leader and that is what I care about
