@@ultramiddle4991 I'd offer you've done a bit of healing and are awake to some elements of what you went through. Anger is normal when you're healing. For many they cannot see what they've been conditioned from a young age not to see because they were told 'that's normal' and their literal survival meant not questioning it. I think with many it's pure unconsciousness born out of a lack of true awakening and healing. The media and other institutions perpetuate the notion of what's normal, acceptable and safe. It takes a strong soul to swim against that tide.
As someone who was in a relationship with a malignant narcissist for 17 years, I recognized it in Donald Trump immediately as soon as I began paying any attention to him
I remember six years ago posting in a London real video with Dan Pena entitled "Trump will Rock the World". I said exactly what you said here and they came after me in the comments. That experience taught me that there are many damaged people out there.
I know,right? I find it hard to understand how so many people choose to follow him. So many are so gullible. They all are part of the "dumbing down of America". It feels like some alien force took controls of their minds while they slept.
Dan Pena definitely attracts damaged people, although Brian Rose his mental health issues at the time of that interview were not so obvious at the time yet (to me). Well, him taking Pena seriously was a bit of a hint, and the narcissistic London Real intros and outros...
Exactly.. I agree. People who can't see this are the bigger problem. They must also be sick.. because I cannot fathom how anyone could be a supporter of this disgusting man... or even just be willing to give him a free pass. Will they heed Professor Vaknin's warning..? No.. I doubt it! Y'all deserve what you will get.
@@bruceami2 As to me, my opinions are formed over time. Having been made aware of this man, long before he was a television name. The presidency just put in a fish bowl, what was already there. Kind of, up close and personal. He is a liability. Could not string together a coherent/honest sentence if his life depended on it. His disregard for laws and morals is blatant and continuous. And so, watching this is more a case of interest. I have a great interest in people that speak their truth. Society has a way of being uncomfortable with it, or lash out, with some All inclusive generalization.

I believe his first wife has dropped hints on social media that this is the case; she won't name names but talks about things like narcissism and people who have it. She's subtle and cryptic with how she words things but yeah. He scolded her for crying after their firstborn son died in infancy. Told her she was "seeking attention."
I didn’t vote for him the first time and I sure won’t vote for him a second time. Why anyone believes him is a mystery to me, and I find it quite scary.
I agree, but couldn't the same be said, maybe worse or better, who knows, about Hilary or Biden? I keep wondering how Tulsi Gabbard didn't win, she mopped the floor with all of them. LOL
I love you for saying this! I cannot believe how many are so stupid. I think America has a tipping point to where half the people enjoy chaos very much and are just as ignorant and arrogant. I'm American and been surrounded by these dangerous toxic type people all my life. It seems theres one everywhere. I divorced one, get in a wonderful relationship and find out hes got 2 in his family. They destroy anything that's good and ruin things for everyone!

Why call people stupid when you said it yourself, married one, new one has a couple in the family, there everywhere? The thing in office right now is a sick old narc and nasty. The choices of representatives have been horrible for decades.
I’ve been saying that about him for yeaaaaars. Thank you. It breaks my heart to see so many people being taken advantage of by him. I grew up with a narcissistic parent; I know the flavors.
It is plain as day that he is a narcissist. How anyone could vote for that man is beyond me. If they could be tested prior to announcing candidacy, that would save the world from some of their malevolence.
@@lovemonkeyfunfun true anyone who watched his reality show or read his book or saw his quotes in articles would have known, certainly by the time The Apprentice aired.
I agree that Trump is probably extremely narcissistic. With that said, do you realize the phrase "How anyone could vote for that man is beyond me." comes off as very narcissistic? Half of the country voted for the guy and you can't even fathom how any single one of them could. They couldn't possibly provide any of their own reasons to you for doing so that you would even consider considering. Unlike you, each and every one of them is simply blind. Unlike you, half of the country (we're talking about millions of individuals with unique perspectives on life) must simply have full-blown NPD in order to vote for a politician you don't like. Get it? I'm sure you're a nice person. I could say that I can't fathom how someone watching a video about narcissism could write such a narcissistic comment. However, I can. You are human and humans make mistakes. You are human, right? Like all those people who voted for Trump?
@@jomansson5742 I believe 97% of our politicians are probably extremely narcissistic. I’m not convinced Trump is any different. I suppose you could argue that he has to play the same game as the others (talking himself up) in order to be a successful politician. I’m not sure how we could possibly tell the difference. The job attracts those with high degrees of narcissism. Maybe I’m being a tad cynical here but shouldn’t we expect our politicians to be extremely narcissistic?

But why so many people fall under his spell is still a mystery to me, I had thought that his supporters/fans must be narcissists too, but that is not the always the case. He is still a very real threat to America and even the world!!
Long before Trump ever became president I felt Trump was a narcissist and this was before I had the education that I do about narcissism....that's how obvious it is. I was absolutely shocked when my country voted him in as the president. How could my country be so blind...blows my mind. To make matters worse the people by and large who adamantly follow him seem to be equally off Balance and disordered. I'm happy you spoke up. Of course our leaders should be called into check!!

Donald Trump made narcissism a household term, and its symptoms well-known. All of sudden, we realized that we live among narcissists, even suffered under them.

Thank you for following your conscience, Dr Vaknin. More professionals need to follow your example. We need to do all we can to keep this sick individual from doing any more harm to the he US and the world.
Thank you for speaking out on this given who you are. Also, I agree that people should be tested for mental health disorders before running for office. How to implement such a requirement causes pause for thought.
Thank you for taking your moral and professional responsibility to warn humanity especially the world and the American people the dangers of what is Donald Trump to every facet of our western culture and democracy.
Good question! Surely it's better to have someone who is blatantly a narcissist in office, rather than someone who is covert. At least we all know what we're dealing with!
A more appropriate question might be, who would you choose between a narcissist Trump or a senile and corrupt Biden who is the puppet of God knows who ?
Agreed, been saying every candidate should do the same required things asked of me, simply because I am a pain patient. If I need evaluations to take medications, and random drug tests, if analytic information is run on me to give me a Rush assessment score than why on earth not a Presidential Candidate?
Thank you professor! For confirming what I already felt was the case..if we all survive a second term of his which is probably going to be, he won’t be able to run again..this man has made himself on every exploited business loophole and backs of people..this man has no real agenda but his own!
It's a McDonald's versus Burger King argument. As long as the individuals who make up the collective society abdicate personal responsibility to an external authority, there will be no brakes on this crazy train to oblivion. Until the individual is immunized to persuasion and able to think without defaulting to "if A, then McDonalds; If B then Burger King" and actually consider the situation realistically/holistically, the collective will continue making shitty decisions based on primal drives. And bad shit is the inevitable outcome no matter what gets "picked" to rule.
Around the 6:00 minute mark: Prof. Vaknin addresses the issue of his qualification to diagnose Donald Trump as a narcissist. He points out that his diagnosis is based upon copious evidence supplied by the "patient".
"Anyone who wants to run for office should be tested first" -- yeah, there's no way that wouldn't be abused 😆 Heck, why stop there? Make it IQ based. After all, you don't want dumb people in power. Oh imagine the "equity" folks opinion on that.
Dr. Vaknin, I have thuroughly benefited from your video's and lectures, thank you! What are your thoughts about the other candidates Trump competed against, whats your porfessional assessment of Hilary and Biden? What characteristics would you use to describe them as more or less harmful than Trump?

Around the 6:00 minute mark: Prof. Vaknin addresses the issue of his qualification to diagnose Donald Trump as a narcissist. He points out that his diagnosis is based upon copious evidence supplied by the "patient".
Welp they voted him in 🤦♀️
"Anyone who wants to run for office should be tested first" -- yeah, there's no way that wouldn't be abused 😆 Heck, why stop there? Make it IQ based. After all, you don't want dumb people in power. Oh imagine the "equity" folks opinion on that.
Dr. Vaknin, I have thuroughly benefited from your video's and lectures, thank you!
What are your thoughts about the other candidates Trump competed against, whats your porfessional assessment of Hilary and Biden? What characteristics would you use to describe them as more or less harmful than Trump?
"He belongs in an institution and it's not the White House" BURN 🤣
Thank you
