I think republican party is full of narcissists and sociopaths,look at thier behavior and what they vote for and against. Its always about hurting powerless or marginalized,poor ,disabled ,minorities and gblt people and rewarding themselves and thier "buddies"they admire yet resent secretly and want thier power and money.
