People justify their own behaviour and responses, they build justification for why *it's ok when I do it because.. *. People with narcissistic personality disorders and the such, who do very bad things, perpetually see themselves as in the right, to a delusional extent. The bad guys, genuinely think they're the good guys. We all do it, to an extent, they double down, they go big.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I’m surprised he’s even willing to indicate he cares. Well…cares about anything past his falling stock price and burning swasticars.
Because his ego is the one thing he actually does care about, it's so painfully obvious and pathetic tbh.
He acts like an absolute ass and expects people to like him. He really is a moron and I've known that for years. I could see through all his bullshit while rest of the world was still cheering his "brilliance".

Who shot Hannibal?
If his critical thinking is proportional to the way he talks (and I'm not referring to his accent), it makes sense that he doesn't have any clue on the reason why
Love how we dedicate dozens of professional journalist staffers and editors to follow this asshole around with a microphone and queue up to hear him do Trollface into a camera and say "Why you mad, tho?" in a Ketted out South African accent.
American Journalism A#1. Liberty, Whiskey, Sexy. Most informed population on earth.
This. Feels like people are just rising to the bait.
Why doesn't anybody like me? I don't understand.
Guess I'll have to crawl inside, and I don't know why
I'm sitting by myself, when the problem isn't mine
Had to check this wasn’t a theonion com
He suffers from Dunning Kruger
He's the physical embodiment of the Dunning Kruger effect. A walking, (awkwardly) talking nepo-baby man-child who is a self-proclaimed expert in everything despite knowing next to fuck all. He and Trump are like peas in a pod.

Self awareness, haven’t seen him.

Well, not everyone is a Tesla shareholder that he can abuse constantly.
Far out, I despise this idiot so, so much.
May he be struck by... A flying ice cream truck.
