applause when they see most former presidents, start clapping out of pure respect.

self-aware person in my life and yet he is so critical of other people's appearance. If he ran across an elderly man who looked and dressed like him, he would be merciless in his ridicule.

- Body Dysmorphic Disorder. People with BDD would be considered reasonably attractive by others, and often even very good looking, but perceive them selves as hideously unattractive.

I think there must be an opposite diagnosis where people who are gag-worthy think they are God’s gift.

Trump is repulsive in every possible way - attitudinally, physically, philosophically, politically, etc etc.

I loathe him.

If not, there should be. Clearly it is a disorder that does exist. We've all known people like that. I knew a teenage boy who was severely anorexic as well as addicted to tanning beds. His appearance was so bizarre and peculiar, but he was oblivious to the fact. When he looked in the mirror, he did not see what we saw.

Of course, that could be true for most of us from time to time, but then we catch a glimpse of ourselves in a store window or see a photo and wonder, "What on earth was I thinking?" With Trump however, that self-awareness doesn't seem to click in, as he sees himself in newspapers and on television all the time. Apparently there are no "What on earth was I thinking" moments for him.

Still, it's really sad that he has to beg for applause.
