5/27/20: Today the country hit a grim milestone. The death toll from the novel coronavirus passed 100,000. Yet, the Narcissist-in-Chief can still gaze admiringly at his reflection in the mirror. He tells himself, because he can’t face an increasingly ugly reality, that he’s doing a fantastic job handling this crisis.
The U.S. has more than 1.7 million cases of COVID-19, four times as many as any other nation on earth.
Trump recently posted on Twitter:
Great reviews on our handling
of Covid 19, sometimes referred to as the China Virus. Ventilators, Testing,
Medical Supply Distribution, we made a lot of Governors look very good - And
got no credit for so doing. Most importantly, we helped a lot of great people!
It’s telling that Trump focuses on his hurt first. That he “got no credit.” Only then does he mention helping “a lot of great people.”
Trump always thinks of himself first. Then he thinks again. And he thinks of himself second.
When he goes to bed at night, he thinks of himself last. When he dreams, he dreams of himself.
When he rises every morning, as President of the United
States, he thinks, “What can I do today to bolster my fragile ego?”
