@JamesTate121 @sandibachom This has been his MO from the very beginning. Some of us saw this immediately. This Vanity Fair article was written in 1990. It could have been written today as he has never evolved. It’s the textbook traits of a narcissist. archive.vanityfair.com/article/1990/9…

@JamesTate121 That certainty is a feature of the malignant narcissist one of the worst diagnosis you could get because of the profound evil

@JamesTate121 ...supplemented with the tRump Glossary of Phrases:

@JamesTate121 That’s not a revelation.

@JamesTate121 Here are some sound bites that showcase the bombastic lying techniques the lunatic uses.

I cannot unsee this. I've been watching Trump answer questions for years. The confidence. The certainty. The way he shuts down a room. I genuinely thought he was one of the sharpest communicators alive. Then one day I caught myself finishing his sentence before he said it. Not guessing. Knowing. Word for word. Before he said it. So I pulled the transcripts. Press conferences. Interviews. Sprays. Egg prices. Greenland. January 6th. Military strikes. Different years. Different reporters. Completely different topics. Same thing every time. Every single time Trump is asked a question — any question — he runs the exact same 7 steps. In the exact same order. Without exception. This is not personality. This is not confidence. This is not charisma. This is a deliberate repeatable formula. And I can prove it. His actual words. Public record. Verify every single one yourself. 📷 STEP 1 — KILL THE QUESTION (First thing every time — make the question itself the problem.) 📷 "That's a stupid question." / "Fake news." 📷 STEP 2 — KILL WHO ASKED IT (Destroy the source so the question has nowhere to stand.) 📷 "Your ratings are terrible. Nobody watches your network." 📷 STEP 3 — INSERT HIMSELF (Every topic. Every time. Without fail. It always lands here.) 📷 "Nobody has ever done what I've done." 📷 STEP 4 — SCALE IT TO THE BIGGEST CLAIM POSSIBLE (Not good. Not great. The greatest. Ever. In history. Every single time.) 📷 "More than any administration — by far." / "Nobody has ever had crowds like I've had — in history, for any country." 📷 STEP 5 — UNNAMED PEOPLE AGREE (Faceless. Countless. Unverifiable. Always there.) 📷 "Smart people are saying it. Great people. A lot of people." 📷 STEP 6 — VAGUE THREAT (Something bad will happen. Never specified. Always implied.) 📷 "All hell will break out." / "They know it. Believe me." 📷 STEP 7 — LOOP BACK TO HIMSELF (Different words. Same destination. Formula complete.) 📷 "It's been an amazing period of time. Page after page of accomplishments." The question was never answered. The formula just ran. Go back and watch any clip. Any year. Any topic. Any reporter. Count the steps. I'll wait. This is the part nobody wants to sit with: Real conviction engages with the actual question. It sometimes stumbles. Sometimes says I don't know. It changes shape based on what's in front of it. A formula runs the same 7 steps whether the topic is war or egg prices. Which means the response was never built for the question. It was built for you. To feel powerful. To feel certain. To stop you from noticing that nothing was actually answered. And it worked. For years it worked. Pull any transcript. Public record. Count the steps yourself. This isn't about politics. This is about what you were never supposed to notice. I've found the same deliberate pattern running in another major figure in this administration. Different slots. Same principle. Same effect. Next post I break it down. Follow or miss it.

@JamesTate121 Every bit and more.

It’s a con man formula that’s been around for a long time! It provides an illusion of success and authority when the majority are drowning in the noise of everything and nothing, unable to see the illusion being set out. He’s not the only one. A lot of them play this same script to different degrees- some just call it “playing the game” or the catchy phrase “Don’t hate the player, hate the game.” All that framing helped create the environment where a man like Donald could infest those vulnerabilities. It’s a product of our own making through decades of appeasement for comfort and security while the noise buries us more! Glad you got out just remember the villian narrative is the comfort as well the bad actors are a mere product of the toxic environment we all swim in!

To all the congressmen who voted YES to continue spying on us at 2:09am, I hope you have a plan B bc you’re gone come Nov. 37 deep dives on the fraudsters and criminals are on my Substack now (it’s free).

U.S COMMIT ACT OF WAR BY HITTING IRANIAN VESSEL FROM CHINA SAYS PEPE ESCOBAR [@RealPepeEscobar]

You know you’ve got a real problem when the bad guys sound more reasonable than the alleged good guys. The Iranians are playing Trump like a fiddle and doing it so politely. This is what happens when you send Laurel and Hardy to negotiate with the enemy. They are so bad at it, that The Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Saeed Katibzaden sounds like a statesman, while Trump sounds like uncle Norman that everyone avoids at family gatherings telling his war stories. 🎥 TikTok - vm.tiktok.com/ZNRqHMfx7/

Iran sidelined its own interests for the sake of securing a ceasefire for #Lebanon, and it did not relent until it acquired its demands. Iran kept the Strait of #Hormuz closed and risked a resumption of war on its country while bringing the global economy to a grinding halt, all so it does not leave Lebanon alone. Meanwhile, the Lebanese government hindered #Iran's peace efforts and sought to defend its sovereignty from "Iranian intervention" while allowing for the incessant violations by the Israeli occupation.

STEW PETERS: “The Iranian LEGO videos have to be the most effective weapon of psychological warfare ever waged against an American president.” With Trump’s big ass inflated ego, it has to be absolutely brutal for that guy.
