The Reality of Trump and Narcissistic Personality Disorder

a reply to: BuzzyWigs

Yeah Topeka claims the same yet spawned the westburough people.

You're right, that would be BS.

I'm not saying it based on television. See my above post.
If you want any further discussion, PM me. I'm tired of this public browbeating. If you have legitimate questions and enough respect to listen without just looking for ways to belittle and attack me, then let me know. By PM. Otherwise, I'm done with this exchange.

Why don't you go look out in the world yourself instead of relying on others to prove stuff to you here?.

I'll bet if you asked your Doctor, he/she would be happy to share some places websites where they download copies of the Psychological evaluations they use themselves on their own patients.

The internet is a wealth of information, use it.

I didn't diagnose him by "television".
He's written books, you know - and his life has been followed closely for 30 years by the entire nation.

I already said that diagnosis does not require having "met" the person and "interviewed" them. It can be done by observation over a period of time, informants who do know the subject, and examination of the subject's "body of work."

Just because you didn't know that doesn't make you right, and it doesn't make me rude and snide.

I could give you rude and snide, but it's not worth it. You're not worth it.

So which of his books have you read?
Were you a fan of the apprentice?

Still no accredited paper that shows any validity to a diagnosis without actually meeting someone?

Westboro are absolute nutters except for Nate Phelps, whom I've met and talked to. His father was a psychopath. He escaped, literally, at midnight on his 18th birthday.

I'm not in Topeka, either - that's where the asshat Governor is camped, and his minions just got the boot.
Now - do you want to settle down and learn somth8ing, or are you too upset to do that?

Yeah doctors love when patients use web md

Yet any of you would judge a filthy person sleeping on a park bench with pissy pants as a looney tune in an instant, at least a homeless failure who doesn't try hard enough.

I'm talking about downloading texts of psychological batteries and other more detailed infromational materials, not Web MD.

Well, you'd be mistaken. He does indeed display classic psychopathy. Perhaps you are unfamiliar with the broader definition of the term, but he definitely displays it.

So now you know. Now you can say "I know he displays classic psychopathy."

Well see there is the rub. The broader definitions born out of a political motivated interpretation. Now I really do believe that not just trying to argue with you. The truth is these days if you are to motivated in looking after self and standing ground, being comfortable in your own skin ect, you may get "diagnosed". Its part of the whole outlook in our culture incorporated in our interpretation of everything. I mean everything. Strict constitutionalist are even dysfunctional to many in our culture these days. Why? Political necessity for opponents to do so.

a reply to: BuzzyWigs

The westborough people are the vilest people I have ever been around. The come from the cosmopolitan ks city of topeka.
Great ambassadors for the state they are.

Again I ask for any accredited paper, study, or other information that recommends diagnosing someone by tv. You want to suggest he may have a condition based on your experience in the industry; I will be happy to listen. That is not what you have posted. You claimed he is unfit. You did not suggest he was.

You friend are simply demonstrating what it is about Trump that makes him a narcissist to you.

Lots of those park bench boys out there are narcissist to good to do a dam thing for themselves bossy pricks "you got anything bigger than a 5$ bill" sort of human wrecks. Standing at the off ramp during rush hour looking folks that just worked all day right in the face......special snow flakes.

The statement you quote was not presented in that context.

So....Whatthe****ever.

Someone (a Congress person, I believe) has started a petition to have his mental stability evaluated, which, come to think of it, probably would not be a bad idea for all presidential candidates.

Nah, I would not start in with evals for POTUS. I remember Richard Nixon. He had his issues but he did govern. His personal issues eventually led to his downfall, but he did govern like a POTUS. Trump OTOH has no history of public service or governing, along with his issues. If Trump, like Nixon, had been able to show a portfolio of governing service, that would be different. That portfolio would show that, even with personal issues, he had met at least minimum qualifications to govern.

Now, that petition would have been more effective if it had demanded Trump show his complete tax returns. If that were to be demanded and acted upon, I would pop some popcorn and wait for the show, The Art of The Squeal.

Does anyone honestly expect someone to rise to the position of the POTUS and not be very far off key? You can't be normal and be exceptional at the same time.

Having said that, I can't stand Trump. I just don't expect any major political leader to be free from not-so-normal wiring.

I see despite the well laid evidence and massive amounts of additional evidence that exists in EVERY Donald interview, there are those who still doubt he has this mental disorder?

The guy might be 'OK' in small form TV/entertainment, where his psychosis has a small impact radius, but as the president of the most powerful nation on Earth... not convinced that's a sane choice.

Your job – The ADA makes it against the law to discriminate against someone with a disability at work. The law also says that employers make "reasonable accommodations" for qualified people with a disability

Trump meets the requirements listed in the constitution.

a reply to: shooterbrody

Oh my god, you've got to be kidding me. A leader over 300 million people and you think we shouldn't judge him based on his wiring.

You realize this label + law in effect enables pathology to spread, right?

No common sense.

a reply to: pl3bscheese

No I am not kidding.
If he has a disability he is entitled to the same protection as any other american is he not?
Is he not qualified for the position?

a reply to: shooterbrody

Idiocy. A severely pathological psychological disorder should automatically disqualify individuals from positions of high influence.
