No liberal would waste their money and republicans only buy books that kiss trump's ass. Sorry little Meg.

Instead, a narcissistic injury, aka “narcissistic wound,” is what some people with NPD might feel when they encounter criticism, loss, or perceived abandonment.

Even though they may not show it, they may experience humiliation and rejection. It’s their feelings in these situations that may be considered narcissistic injuries.

There are other very confused repubs writing books, but the difference is that many journalists are forced to read their books in preparation for potential presidential runs. Meghan is a failure with no future in politics or even TV.

That bottle blonde hair is aging her horribly.

Meow.

300 copies is really terrible, even for Republican books that usually sell to make people look literate but are never read.

Nobody really wants to read a book that just says "my father" over and over again for 400 pages.

I was John McCain’s daughter, then I was on the view, then I yelled at trump even though I supported every policy he put in place.
