_____Narcissistic personality disorder_____
Definition
By Mayo Clinic Staff
Narcissistic personality disorder is a mental disorder in which people have an inflated sense of their own importance, a deep need for admiration and a lack of empathy for others. But behind this mask of ultraconfidence lies a fragile self-esteem that's vulnerable to the slightest criticism.
Symptoms
By Mayo Clinic Staff
If you have narcissistic personality disorder, you may come across as conceited, boastful or pretentious. You often monopolize conversations. You may belittle or look down on people you perceive as inferior. You may feel a sense of entitlement and when you don't receive special treatment, you may become impatient or angry. You may insist on having "the best" of everything for instance, the best car, athletic club or medical care.

This charade has gone beyond even a sick joke. Trump is dangerously mentally unstable and must never be allowed anywhere near the levers of power.
What a damning indictment that a major political party would nominate this precarious personality for the presidency.
The Republican Party must NEVER be allowed to "disremember" this moment of historically feckless and craven political malpractice.
