In the meantime, I watched the video and noticed the Nikki Haley and the man right after her didn't suck up to Trump. They just said something vague about their job description and smiled. They were the only people in the video who didn't parrot what "an honor and privilege it was to serve with him," so his staff was probably coached to do this. I wonder if Trump prompted them to say something before the video was shot.

Narcissist Trump has his staff kiss his ass at his first cabinet meetinf
That was hyper-awkward. North Korea style for sure. I thought they were going to get on their knees and worship him.

Little early for a blunt, isn't it?

Then being so damaged, he got in the habit of lies and deception being the way to escape blame and get through life, never taking responsibility.

So when he is off tooting his own horn and being applauded, it is all he relates to, used to having the "persona" fueled by accolades. He is absolutely flat and empty as a person and those having had to be around him, surely have found out. But his superficial "showman" fooled those who don't deal with him personally who like to believe only what he portrays and his so-called, "glamorous past". I think a lot has been embellished since young, points his fans want to believe.

I have mentioned a story of him punching his music teacher in the eye when in grade-school, and wasn't expelled (getting away with stuff from the start) - but what kind of kid reacts like that? Later, sent to a military school, due to his behavior. He must have learned very early to react aggressively, being angry, bullying and excused, as a way of life and remained stunted, emotionally. (His Father must have been a real piece of work, also).

Well, it's involved, I don't know his whole story, but is so extreme, it intrigues me. An example of how some deeply-flawed individuals run loose, affecting other people's lives. I cannot believe this has occurred and can't wait for it to be over.
There are some interesting biographies of Trump which include accounts of his childhood and adolescence. Very enlightening reading. "The Making of Donald Trump" came out last year - its author knows Trump personally and has worked with him. There are others, all published by reputable publishing houses.

And yes, these bios. are "fair and balanced" - and documented.

Trump wants everybody to bow before his greatness. What a weird, low self-esteem guy Trump is. To be so arrogant and obnoxious, Trump is as sensitive as a 12 year old kid.
The fact that there is 22 pages of comments on this in 18 hours speaks to the sensitivity of the opposition as well.

Trump is who he is. He is 70 yrs old and is not changing who he is - especially since he won the presidency being who he is.

The Cabinet people were probably told to say something positive - but not given a script.

This is really not a big deal in the scheme of everything else going on.

Money or power - or fear. It's certainly not any sense of self-esteem or self-respect that's driving their behavior. The Trump administration is becoming more and more cult-like.

Scary.

It didn't take much time at all.
Its no surprise that people who don't know what is going on in government would ask that question. Many cabinet members have been a part of the WH daily briefing. Reporters have ask them many questions but seldom does the media spend any significant time reporting on it.

Again you are inaccurate and unable to relate your observations factually. Mad Dog Mattis spoke about the great troops he leads and nothing about the president.

This is just another baseless accusation like the Russian collusion. What you wonder is innuendo without fact in support. It is this kind of thinking that is helping the Russians more than helping the American people.
