When Biden and Obama were president he was constantly criticizing them, usually with half truths or exaggerations.
But strangely Trump isn't responsible for anything while he's president.
usually with half truths or exaggerations.
Most often with blatant lies.
He was the king of the birthers, after all.
He's a narcissist. How often do narcissists ever give a sincere apology for something they've done?
DJT: "I thought 'the buck stops here' means I get to keep all the money."
Tendency?! That’s all he does. It’s not a tendency — it’s his native reaction.
Seriously, it’s a fucking character trait.
It's also not something he does, but that we all let him get away with.
In post revolutionary France people would've wondered about the staying power of the American people with this exploitative sack of shit.
The malignant narcissist is acting like a malignant narcissist! Truly shocking.
Does that imply the existence of a benign narcissist?
Is this different than when Democrats repeat their failed mistakes over and over and blame everyone else but themselves?
"But the Democrats!"
I'm reminded of a joke that involves Cokie Roberts and how she would hypothetically cover a news story about some prominent conservative, like Newt Gingrich, if they were literally lighting actual kittens on fire and tossing them into heavy traffic.
Cokie: "But the Democrats!"
I wonder if he even remembers how many children he's raped?
He's a particularly bad president in a lot of ways, but I'm not sure this is unusual. Biden dumped bad issues on Harris and Buttigieg and blamed external problems when things weren't going well. Leaders taking responsibility for things is more something we desire to see and praise when it happens than the norm.
