(1,979 posts)I had a shitty boss who would show up with candy or donuts as an icebreaker at meetings. It's a tactic right out of the douchebag handbook. If you don't touch them you are suspect. You can't be bought with treats. Every dog trainers nightmare.

(34,661 posts)anyone who has to deal with Trump. He is not prepared,even though he things he is,or capable of,ever doing a honest deal. And the first thing about any deal is the meeting of minds,and with that sucker,it is not about to happen or will ever happen. The Guy is as you say a Narcissist . His train of thought is some where less than fifteen seconds on any subject.
And all of his so called aides are just "Groupies"hoping a twenty dollar bill will fall out of his pocket.
My friend and I used to be Roadies for a Garage Band back in the late fifties,thank fully it was only on weekends,we would deal with the groupie crowd,amazing how people drink the Kool Aid and believe the hype.

(1,979 posts)I am friends with so many people who still believe that Asshat-in-Chief is doing a great job. I limit my socialization with them to avoid any confrontation. I feel like I'm eternally an extra in "Invasion of the Body Snatchers".

(34,661 posts)true Trumper's,and they are getting clobbered by their so called fake President,yet they can not see the friggin trees for the forest. One is waiting to get paid for his Contract he has with the Dept of AG doing preventative species control. Another is waiting for Crop Subsidy payment. Another is looking at the loss of Federal Reimbursement to their Senior Citizen Program.
Again,have to say,clueless is best description.

(2,901 posts)...Im betting it was a Payday, a 100 Grand and a Skor bar he awkwardly held up as props in a sheepishly orchestrated skit; eyes shifting around the room gasping for any sign of approval at his childish pitch; the silence in the room broken only by the sounds of the wrapper fidgeting between his fingers...
