Narcissists, Terrorists and Republicans have a lot in common

When a person says, "Look what you made me do!" You know they are one or more of the three. They commit the sin and then blame the innocent for the crime. Now Johnson is Speaker. Expect Democrats to be blamed for the terrorist act of making this narcissistic Republican Speaker of the the House.

yes, you're perception is correct. You won't see an Empath arguing against abortion, climate change, cutting off aid to Ukraine, cutting taxes for the rich, and decimating Democracy (excuse the alliteration).
