Trump's reaction shows Bob Woodward inflicted a 'severe' narcissistic injury: psychotherapist
https://www.rawstory.com/2020/09/trumps-reaction-shows-bob-woodward-inflicted-a-severe-narcissistic-injury-psychotherapist/#.X1rIuKr7gsI.twitterDetails from Bob Woodward’s latest book, “Rage,” appear to have seriously harmed Donald Trump’s ego, according to a psychotherapist who co-authored a book about the president’s mental health.
Explosive details from the book went public on Wednesday, and Trump spent much of Thursday morning on Twitter.
“Our president tweeted and retweeted self-adulatory content 34 times, so far, in one hour. The narcissistic injury induced by Woodward tapes is severe,” wrote Elizabeth Mika, the co-author of “The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump,” in response to the president’s Twitter spree.
“Self-adulatory, contemptuous of his critics, and/or threatening content. Rage is a natural response to narcissistic injury,” she continued.
