Publisher's summary

America is imploding in front of our eyes, and no one seems to understand how to stop it or reverse it. There are many talking heads and so-called experts, and even politicians telling us they can save us, but these politicians are the very people who got us to this place. They have no idea they are part of the nightmare called political narcissism.

This revolutionary book will explain once and for all how we got to this place, and why America is in a free fall that many say cannot be stopped. You think you know about narcissists? Wait until you discover how American politicians have the exact DSM-5 profile of the extreme narcissists and psychopaths. Political Narcissism will show you precisely who these evil politicians are deep inside their minds and hearts, and why they do what they do. Once you understand how their minds work, you will stop asking useless questions about why they do what they do, because you'll know exactly.

Pride is the Bible’s word for the nearly equivalent secular psychiatric word “narcissism.” The DSM-5 or Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders is the Bible of Psychiatry, and they’ve done a good job breaking down the traits of a prideful person or what they call a narcissist.

The 9 Traits of Political Narcissism
  1. Feels grandiose and self-important (exaggerates achievements and talents to the point of lying, demands to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)
  2. Is obsessed with fantasies of unlimited success, fame, fearsome power or omnipotence, unequalled brilliance (the cerebral narcissist), bodily beauty or sexual performance (the somatic narcissist), or ideal, everlasting, all-conquering love or passion
  3. Firmly convinced that he or she is unique and, being special, can only be understood by, should only be treated by, or associate with, other special or unique, or high-status people (or institutions)
  4. Requires excessive admiration, adulation, attention and affirmation – or, failing that, wishes to be feared and to be notorious (narcissistic supply)
  5. Feels entitled. Expects unreasonable or special and favorable priority treatment. Demands automatic and full compliance with his or her expectations
  6. Is “interpersonally exploitative” (uses others to achieve his or her own ends)
  7. Devoid of empathy. Is unable or unwilling to identify with or acknowledge the feelings and needs of others
  8. Constantly envious of others or believes that they feel the same about him or her
  9. Arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes coupled with rage when frustrated, contradicted, or confronted

A person does not have to have all 9 to be classified to suffer from political narcissism.

Almost all politicians are extreme narcissists. Typically the narcissist is arrogant, without empathy, never needs to apologize because they’re never wrong, believes they are the smartest person in the room, believes they know better how to make decisions for people better than the people do for themselves, has no hesitation using other people to accomplish their own goals no matter how it hurts those people, never feel guilt, cannot feel how bad they hurt people, have no sense of guilt or empathy, feel they are entitled, will not be contradicted or confronted, and will lie and steal and commit fraud with no guilt whatsoever. They must win at all cost, and no cost is too high as long as others are paying the cost. They will even sink the ship they are on in order to make sure their enemies do not win. They are self-destructive, and they are evil. If they cannot take over America by hook or by crook, they will destroy America, and that is exactly what they are doing today.
