Of course we all realize that trump loves this. he tweets - gets non stop attention.

narcissists don't care whether it is good or bad attention - there is no bad attention for him - he can think "yay, me me me me me me me"

Pavlov would say that he has been rewarded throughout life for getting that attention - he's never really had to pay for any of his arrogance or bullying. All of us here should still be in shock that the megaasshole is actually president. Take a step back and think about that.

Of course the tweet is reprehensible. Of course he hates women.

And the media, the politicians - everyone who reacts and responds provides him with his reward.

Attention.
