Those who confuse narcissitic traits with a Narcisstic Personslity Disorder the point.

All mental health, like physical health can be seen on a spectrum.

Selfish: almost all of us exhibit this from time to time

Narcisstic traits: as many say, many politicians and business leaders display this

Narcisstic Personslity Disorder - a limited few reach this. These individuals have a trail of failed relationships, business ventures and other ventures.

It’s like the difference in feeling sad/down and having a Major Depression Disorder
quote:

Oh, no. He's a narcissist like every other politician?


This is the big mistake people make. Plenty of people have narcisstic traits. Those may or may not be destructive.

Trump has a full blown, diagnosable Narcisstic Personality Disorder. His condition is much more serious.
There’s so much video. He checks the boxes for virtually every aspect of the disorder (for another topic).

Today on the Meet The Press interview we saw Narcissistic Rage.

Narcissistic rage is the intense anger that can occur when a person with a full-blown Narcissistic Personality Disorder experiences a blow to their self-image, status, control, or sense of superiority.

Trump is triggered when he is

* Being criticized.
* Being corrected.
* Being ignored.
* Not getting special treatment.
* Being told “no.”
* Experiencing failure or embarrassment.
* Having someone challenge their version of events.

The textbook reactions are:

* Explosive yelling or screaming.
* Personal attacks and insults.
* Humiliation or ridicule of the other person.
* Blaming everyone else.
* Refusal to accept responsibility.
* Vindictive behavior or revenge-seeking.
* Suddenly cutting someone off (“You’re dead to me.”)
* Cold, icy withdrawal and silent treatment.

He displayed all but the first one today.

Interestingly, narcissistic rage is not always loud. Today wasn’t.

The most common reactions

* Explosive rage — obvious anger. He was.
* Passive-aggressive rage — sabotage, guilt trips, silent treatment. He displayed name calling and made demeaning comments.
* Cold rage — emotional withdrawal, contempt, calculated punishment. He walked off.
I guess one way to find out is go to my polling location and see if I get to vote.
The 25th Amendment is evoked.
It’s every bit 25th Amendment bad.

The worst cocktail is a person with a malignant Narcissistic Personality Disordered who has sociopathy and is further diminished by dementia AND he holds the most powerful position in the world.

Most of our countrty’s serial killers were less danger than Trump is right now.
I’ll take a stab at it

1. Susie Wiles - Does DJT trust her the most?
2. Kevin Robert’s - Heritage Foundation- the big picture policy guy
3. Charles Koch/Peter Thiel - very deep pockets
4. Stephen Miller - day to day implementation of The Plan
5. Dan Scavino/Jason Miller - shape the message
6. Leonard Leo / Federalist Society - all matters pertaining to the judiciary
7. Russell Vought - federal spending
8. Stegen Miran - trade/economic strategy

These people send directives to the Caninet members
Dang, I forgot Leavitt and Mike Johnson. I’ll put them between Bondi and RFK, Jr.
1. Stephen Miller
2. Pete Hegseth
3. Kash Patel
4. Kristi Noem or Markwayne
5. Pam Bondi
6. RK, Jr.
7. Scott Bessent
8. Howard Lutnick
9. Tulsi Gabbard
10. Linda McMahon

But what a small gap between #1 & #10

Paddling doesn’t work.

My middle school Principal paddled so hard when the paddle landed tears shot out of your eyes.

Still, he gave me the option of 3 licks or 3 days in lunch detention. I always opted for the paddles. My reasoning: the paddle only stings for a few minutes, while putting me in a boring detention room took me away from my friends for 3 days that lasted more than an hour. It was simple math.

Well, you check the major box for how a stereotype is born.

You are saying “all female liberals are unattractive”

Slide that alongside

All blacks are lazy.
All blondes are dumb.
All people from the south are hillbillies.
I love watching reaction videos and she’s my favorites
She knows so much so sometimes her videos are a little too long. Her genuine facial expressions do it for me.
Obviously there’s room for a combination of recruits and transfers for positions like OL, DL, WR and even DB.

The competition starts heating up at RB and especially at QB. A QB wants to be the man and a RB wants to be the feature back.

I get the desire to bring in a RB and QB transfer who can give you a solid year immediately and its a bonus if he has multiple years of eligibility.

In the age of the transfer portal, will a school miss out on a 5 star QB (especially) or RB if that school brings in a high level transfer who has multiple years of eligibility left?
Now…..I’d love to see this in an abbreviated depth chart format. I don’t have the player knowledge fior many of these players to do that.
I don’t know if he was the biggest miss
but LSU wanted Cecil Collins so they let Michigan have Winnfield’s Anthony “A Train” Thomas. All he did was start 4 years and break the run happy Wolverine career rushing record. He was then the NFL Rookie of the Year.
This is much less busy and much easier to read.

Now….if there were only 27 transfers in.

Whew, you must be a professor in the Mathematics Dept. I finally figured out the key areas to look at “LSU Commits” but this is a little bitbusy
How long will the Saban Withdrawl last….5 years, 10 years……
Google tells me the biggest bowl game loss in program history was a 25 pts defeat to Missouri in 1968.
On signing day you know the big name commits so you wait and see if they follow through

We will likely sign some really good portal players who are not well known except by those who study CFB closely.

I expect to spend some time tomorrow looking up who players are.

That’s what a top rated Player Personnel group will do for us.
