Trump is easy to figure out. He always wanted to be the greatest at everything and he realized many years ago he could not be what he wanted to be. He's to stupid. He discovered you could fool people by pretending and lying. He created a complete fake picture of himself and he spent his entire life selling it. It worked.
He is still selling the fake picture and millions of Americans are still buying it.

(21,110 posts)Researchers today dont know what causes NPD. There are many theories, however, about the possible causes of narcissistic personality disorder. Most professionals subscribe to a biopsychosocial model of causation that is, the causes are likely due to biological and genetic factors, social factors (such as how a person interacts in their early development with their family and friends and other children), and psychological factors (the individuals personality and temperament, shaped by their environment and learned coping skills to deal with stress). This suggests that no single factor is responsible rather, it is the complex and likely intertwined nature of all three factors that are important. If a person has this personality disorder, research suggests that there is a slightly increased risk for this disorder to be passed down to their children.
