Trump needs to humble himself and so his critical thinking skills can improve.
If he doesn't then a higher power will.

His pride makes him vulnerable to trusting wolves who undermine his cause.

Trump is definitely vulnerable to praise. That has been his main flaw since he entered politics.
Sessions is an example. During the 2016 campaign, sessions was trump's lapdog. He praised trump to high heaven and got himself a key position after trump won. Then he used that key position to stab trump in the back. That could've easily been avoided if trump didn't easily trust people who kiss his arse.
I will say that it is probably difficult. Politicians depend on sweet talking others, for votes and power. They are professional manipulators.

He has no connection to the common man because he never was one. That kind of pride makes him out of touch with regular people. You can't read the heart of a man but you can feel the energy they give off if they are good or bad.
If Trump would stop praising himself so much then maybe he can understand who is surrounding him and pick his allies better.

If Trump’s so “addicted” to praise or even just a very big fan of it, then it would seem that he’s into the worst possible thing for this supposed needy ego. As much as people try to tear him down, and in the most vicious of ways, he’s at a net loss in the praise area. And it’s really not even close. Way way more insult than praise. I’m not saying he doesn’t have we’ll call it very strong self-esteem and strong ego, but good, I can’t imagine wanting a leader who isn’t extremely sure of himself.
This is why I believe “praise” doesn’t play any serious role in what he does or who he has on his “team” at any given point.

I think Trump has dirt on Graham and forces Graham to shill for him and kiss his arse publicly. That segment was more about “WTF is up is with Graham kissing Trump’s arse when it seem obvious that he should /does hate Trump when the cameras are off. Hilarious you spin it this way when the segment was WAY more critical of Graham than Trump.

Hey D bag, would we be involved with the Ukraine, on the cusp of WWIII and sending them billions of dollars (we don’t have) if Trump was still President? Since he’s such an establishment neocon and all? You know the answer.

Also, Graham went from one day years ago being publicly anti-Trump to the next day sucking his cock. Been saying since that happened that Trump must have dirt on him for that much of an abrupt change in his opposition to staunch support of him, especially when as Tucker pointed out, by all accounts, Graham should hate him. His opposition to Trump made sense. Trump has some dirt on him—probably proof of what everyone knows, which is Graham is a closeted cock sucker—that would likely sink his political career in SC. I didn’t even think about the importance of the SC primary but that provides a bit more of a plausible explanation as to why Trump could be pulling his strings to make him publicly kiss Trumps arse. Again, it’s fricking hilarious you think Trump is that dumb and that you think the 2020 election of Biden was legitimate.
The GOPe TDS is real AF.
