According to a report in Politico, many of Donald Trump’s problems are the direct result of his inability to get over the smallest of slights leading him to make poor decisions because he can’t see his way to let go of a grudge.

The report notes, “Whether in the privacy of his clubs or out on the campaign trail, the president can’t help but hold onto a grudge. Even as Trump heads into an election year with a record that he claims ranks him among the best presidents of all time, political grievances continue to drive everything from policy decisions to rally speeches to some of the biggest scandals of his presidency — including his impeachment.”


Case in point, Trump has been at war with a billionaire Florida businessman who ran for governor and used a clip of an altercation with Trump as part of a campaign ad.



“At his private club in West Palm Beach, Trump was smarting over a local political feud. After finishing a round of golf the weekend after Thanksgiving, a small group approached the president as he stepped off the 18th green: two of his biggest donors, and a Florida neighbor,” Politico reports. “The president shook everyone’s hands, but then coldly turned to his neighbor, a fellow billionaire who lives down the block from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort. ‘Pretty nervy of you to come to this club,” Trump snapped.”............................

.........................

“When people get in his way, he has no patience for it and it becomes a personal vendetta even when it shouldn’t and when it’s against his own self-interest,” he explained. “He’s ungoverned around that — he won’t take advice, he won’t look to getting more informed — he will simply do whatever he wants. “He’s used to getting away with that because he was insulated from his own mistakes his whole life. His family and his money helped protect him, and then he became a celebrity and he enjoyed the halo of protection that celebrity has, and now he is president he enjoys legal protections.”..................................................

9. I think it is pretty typical with narcissist people

[bucolic_frolic]

11. Yes.

Those raised in a narcissist-led household know that they have been formed to feed the narcissist, and when they grow up they automatically, subconsciously, attract dominant narcissist types who lead them around by the nose.

I suspect many MAGAzis fall into this pattern because they are now led around by the Faux TV Gods.

13. He can't take the criticism from Trudeau, Merkel,

and heads of other democratic governments. He's become persona non grata, so he takes it out on the foreign trade economy.

14. Mistake

"... because he was insulated from his own mistakes his whole life."

Again & again we make this mistake about this narcissist (and narcs in general).
This is the way normal people learn.

Narcissists at this level don't behave like they do because they were insulated from their mistakes, they behave like they do because it's their nature to behave like they do. If you punish them, they just lash out (sooner, mostly, but maybe later). If they're psychopaths, they don't have limitations on what they'll do.

You can either remove their opportunity to make more mistakes or remove their ability to punish.

21. Can't remember the felon flunkies he conspired with for decades,

But he'll never forget the smallest slight, or reality tv style feud.
