This is what happens when a narcissist is confronted with reality. And I'm not saying that to insult the guy. I legitimately believe he has clinical narcissism.

My biological mother had it. It was a nightmare for her until she was diagnosed and put on the proper medication. It's real, and it's due to an imbalance in brain chemistry.

I hope this is his wake up call, and he realizes at last that he needs help.

@LordShadowfire Unfortunately his realizing he needs help is highly unlikely. I’d actually slide him over into the category of malignant narcissism.

@OlderSometimesWiser More importantly, he has entered the rapid downward spiral of dementia. No doubt the stress of his legal problems & failing social media publicly traded company along with his financial woes are aggravating his mental slide. Additionally, that stress is making his irritable bowel syndrome worse as well as his insomnia. All of these things have a cumulative effect on his paranoia.

Put that all together in a [b]criminal courtroom setting [/b]that he is stuck in from the early morning until late afternoon where he is forced to listen to the horrible truth about himself—well, let’s just sum it all up by saying he is a train wreck that will quickly worsen over the coming days.

And he brought it all on himself.

@KunsanVeteran Good points. I sometimes wonder if he ever regrets running for/becoming president. On the one hand, his colossal ego’s gotta love it but on the other hand it’s brought down a world of hurt upon him. So much of which he likely would have gotten away with had he stayed in his NYC tower.
