(73,528 posts)31. Well, thank you.
I think you'll enjoy my next OP. I might write it tonight, or else tomorrow.
I think that Trump has a personality disorder. Part of it is learned behavior; being a self-absorbed spoiled brat taught him that behaving in the manner he does, helps get his needs met. Often, kids that learn such dysfunctional behaviors find that they do not translate well to the larger society, starting with school. But Trump learned he could get his own way most of the time. And, when he didn't, other people paid the cost.
That's a funny thing about personality disorders: most cause discomfort and suffering for the person with them, but a few cause discomfort and suffering for those around them. Trump is an example of that.

I thought it interesting that Trump made a point to say he was told 3 times he was not a subject...
