LOL!!! But I've learned my lesson:
I've been quietly wishing that President Duh Don's popular vote margin of defeat would end up being twice what it was in 2016 -- and this happened:
And this is from an article I posted on my New Jersey health news blog:
Shame is worse than death for a pathological narcissist, because it exposes some flaw in him, even if it is a natural human flaw....(H)e must retain (a) grandiose delusion of superiority and perfection at all costs because...(it is) all he has...
The rage with which a pathological narcissist reacts to shame or humiliation thus helps him to fight against his inner emptiness and easy depression...(at being) deprived of the admiration and special treatment he believes he deserves...
Nothing is ever his fault, no matter how great a mess he creates. Responsibility and blame are for other people, as is any loss. Admitting his fault in any way creates a crack in his false façade...(A) simple, neutral observation or even the prospect of a loss...unleash(es)...rage attacks...like hellfire on an unsuspecting victim.

A simple, neutral, but inconveniently true observation: "More people voted against you than for you TWICE IN A ROW." Well, I'm cancelling Christmas -- I've already got my presents!
