Is Donald J Trump a psycopath?
Like most of the country I knew about Trump before he appeared like a black swan or a golum in the Republican primaries. He became an object of my contempt in reports from the NY Times after building his tower. The Times reported that Trump lurked outside his building to waylay celebreties and invite them in to promote his building.
My contempt and disdain for him only grew as Trump managed to constantly get himself in the news. So it was no surprise to me when he plunged into the Republican primaries. And it was no surprise to me when he destroyed 16 hapless wannabe candidates.
As more and more media exposure exposed Trump it became clear to me what was happening. Trump had some magician like capability to destroy his opponents. He wiped out Jeb Bush ((and his $100M bank account) with one comment. (That’s a “low energy campaign.”) He deflated Marco Rubio with “Little Marco”. He punctured Cruz with “Lying Ted”. These vicious sobriquets had pinpoint accuracy to take down his competitors. What accounted for their devastating power?
Then I realized, drawing on my own business experience, that Trump was a psychopath. Psycopaths have unusual powers. Hitler and Mussoslini were psychopaths. They have psychic abilities to identify and hone in on the vulnerabilities of their victims and their competitors. Vide: the slicing through the field of 17. These special powers fit them especially ijn crowd situations – so that Trump has made his supporters believe that they have a special bond with him. In realty, of course they have no bond. The psychopath has only his interests at heart.
