I stated this many times, It would be Trumps narcissism that destroys him.

[shockey80]

This mistake Trump made was a direct result of his narcissism. He thought he had beaten the Mueller Report. He thought the Mueller report cleared him of conspiracy, It did not.

A person with a normal brain who survived the Mueller report would have said this to themselves, I dodged a bullet, don't make that mistake again. Not Trump, He saw it as green light to do it again. His narcissism will now lead him to believe he can get out of this. He thinks he is smarter and better than everyone. He thinks he is invincible. He will commit more crimes and make more mistakes. He cannot control himself.

1. That's the problem with narcissists...

They underestimate how other people will react to their actions.

[lunatica]

6. And they overestimate their own cleverness

Narcissists who are successful are obligated to remain a mystery to people around them because it’s the only way they can lie, cheat and fool people. They can only function within limited groups. They have to make sure to divide everyone, to keep people off balance, to bully individuals so they can control them.

That’s not so easy to do to entire countries. Proof of this is that even before he became president we already had his number. We just couldn’t prove it and people who benefitted from his Narcissism protected him.

7. True on almost all points...

But I think that it is probably easier to do it to large groups if he can get the mob mentality to kick in.

Well, that and a soft media and press. Since our "democracy" seldom if ever has 50% participation, minority interests take over.

[True Blue American]

10. They also move on

To other groups once people find them out and they can not use them any more.

[BigmanPigman]

2. He "can't control himself" comes from being a sociopath too.

[Lib 4 Life]

3. hubris

[unblock]

4. we're not there yet.

this could very well be his waterloo.

but then again, republicans could also continue to cover for him and permit him to cheat even more in 2020....

cautiously optimistic....

[TommyCelt]

11. I'm not optimistic...

I'll believe it when he's in leg irons.

[unblock]

12. well that i'm not at all optimistic about.

he certainly deserves to rot in prison for the rest of his miserable existence, but i'll be satisfied when he's out of office and the media treats him like a pariah when they're not ignoring him outright.

[cstanleytech]

13. Add on when he is joined there by Moscow Mitch and friends.

[lunatica]

5. I'm beginning to feel kind of sorry

for his future penitentiary inmates.

[meadowlander]

8. Surely it's cruel and unusual punishment

to sentence someone to 24/7 of "the greatest electoral college victory of all time".

[Texin]

9. He's done it his entire miserable existence. It's his essence.

He cannot be anything other than what he is. That said, he's NOT "destroyed" yet. Not by a long shot.

[calimary]

15. Yep. Wise words, Texin.

He’s not beaten yet.

[Nitram]

14. Yes, it was not surprising that a pathologically narcissistic, paranoid, borderline personality

made a few mistakes. It's just too bad about the people who got hurt along the way.

[NCLefty]

16. I always think of that book called "Hubris" with Bush Jr. and Cheney, and Rumsfeld on it.

[lindysalsagal]

17. Also predictable: He will burn so many staff, there won't be handlers to save him from himself

He's a frustrated toddler and Nanny's long gone.

[DinahMoeHum]

18. NOBODY is that lucky forever.

Nobody.
