I think the Speaker has a psychiatrist on staff or on call.

5. Congressional Democrats met with a psychiatrist a year ago.

I can also tell from my own experience with a narcissist in the workplace. I got rid of one, but I had to plan carefully and proceed methodically, following the rules to the letter. I also gave him every possible chance to redeem himself, knowing he never would, but it allowed me to show I wasn't trying to hurt him, I was actually trying to work with him.


This all prevented the narcissist from using any minor error against me later. Which he did try to do, but I had the documentation and he didn't. I did make one mistake - I got angry at him one time. He did use this against me and it's the one thing I couldn't defend. Fortunately it was just once, and I admitted I was wrong, so it had little effect.

I consulted books on workplace narcissism and dealing with difficult employees to help me out.
