  • Grandiosity with expectations of superior treatment from others
  • Fixated on fantasies of power, success, intelligence, attractiveness, etc.
  • Self-perception of being unique, superior and associated with high-status people and institutions
  • Needing constant admiration from others
  • Sense of entitlement to special treatment and to obedience from others
  • Exploitative of others to achieve personal gain
  • Unwilling to empathize with others' feelings, wishes, or needs
  • Intensely envious of others and the belief that others are equally envious of them
  • Pompous and arrogant demeanor


Remind you of anyone?
Hillary Clinton.

>>>> Just about every politician and actor, and many athletes. But I guess Obama and Hillary would stand out among politicians. Lebron James in professional sports. Tom Cruise as an actor.

When I read the unyielding defenses of The Trumpeters when they once again defend Trump for his outlandish behavior, I wonder if they are representative of the general American population. Then I am slightly relieved that they probably aren't, since Trump's approval rating has slipped even further to around 38%.That's pretty awful for a guy just getting started on his first term. (Cue the lame defense of our bombastic arrogant President).

Yep. But Michelle seems to be keeping him on a short leash these days. Haven't heard that much from Barack in the last week or so.
