Who thinks Trump's claim to be the chosen one was sacrilegious

[thecolorsblend]

There are plenty of psychologists that have stated he is a narcissist, specifically, a malignant narcissist

Where did they get their degrees? And why are they violating the Goldwater Rule?

I feel sorry for the 45th President of the United States. He's clearly just a demented and confused old man and the presidency is too much for him.

His fellow shock jock and friend, Howard Stern, predicted that being president would be very bad for him. He's getting more and more erratic and unhinged.

Howard Stern said on his program Wednesday that Trump will hate being president and the role will be detrimental to his mental health.

Stern and Trump are long-time friends, with Trump making numerous appearances on Stern's radio show over the years.


"I personally wish that he had never run, I told him that, because I actually think this is something that is gonna be detrimental to his mental health too, because, he wants to be liked, he wants to be loved," Stern said. "He wants people to cheer for him."


"I don't think it's going to be a healthy experience. And by the way, he's now on this anti-Hollywood kick. He loves Hollywood. First of all, he loves the press. He lives for it. He loves people in Hollywood. He only wants hobnob with them. All of this hatred and stuff directed towards him. It's not good for him. It's not good."
Howard Stern: Trump wants to be loved, presidency will be 'detrimental' to his mental health

I don't know if he has a mental condition.. or if he has an evil spirit. But Christians should be concerned when their leader is comfortable with being compared to God. Anyone who thinks it's "nice words" rather than "blasphemy" to be compared to the King of Israel and the Second Coming of God is out of the loop. This should raise a few eyebrows. Rather than "retweet" that blasphemy in an effort to boast about it... he should have humbled himself and counted himself as lower than a worm in comparison with God.

'I am the Chosen One': with boasts and insults, Trump sets new benchmark for incoherence | Donald Trump | The Guardian

Every leader, no matter how influential they may seem to be, to us..... is there as part of God's grand plan.

Every leader, therefore, is a "chosen one"

As an aside........... He is President... he was elected by your system.... when are people going to accept it.. move on and let the electoral process take it's course in the next election?

Seriously... I am so sick of the whining of the left that Trump won..... Get over yourselves. The media is so focused on Trump winning... For goodness sake, that was two years ago...

Face it... and move on.

it’s fairly obvious that he is a narcissist

Even the author who invented the Narcissus character meant to lead us to a diagnosis of sorts. I like how I wrote that

The topic on the table is whether Trump claiming to be the chosen one was/is sacrilegious or not.
The discussion has nothing to do with Clinton. You are trying to change the subject.

Someone needs to make a Clinton body count thread

Yes but is every leader - [turns and looks toward the sky] - the Chosen One?

You do the man a disservice.

He is probably the greatest narcissist who has ever lived, and people love him, they
really do........

I’m starting to wonder how racist people really are.

Having historical low black unemployment and historical low Hispanic unemployment really seems to bother a lot of people.

The US now being the largest energy producers in the world. All the steel, coal, oil - great jobs coming back.

But yeah, that’s nothing

He’s obviously a demented and confused man, but why didn’t every other President do it?

Maybe we should discuss the First Step Act or the Inner City development program?

That’s pretty much all they have.

Can we talk about abortion and why Christians support abortion and infanticide?

It’s chilling. People seem mad that tax payers are no longer funding Planned Parenthood.

Christians you are shocking

For sure not.

Look at the terrible unemployment and stock markets under Clinton and Obama.

Now at least are 401 K’s are actually making money.

You aren’t happy Americans and retirement accounts are doing well?

That foreign investors are investing in our companies and building businesses in the US?

Excuse me ....

How is saying you were chosen BY God, if that is actually what he meant in reference to fighting China, comparing himself TO God?

There is a lot of misinformation floating around this thread

So you understand, I am doing a Donald on the description of "narcissist".
I do not believe he is the greatest narcissist, he may want to believe this, but
like everything in this regard it is just propoganda.

Yes, "Excuse you".

Re-read my post. I didn't mention a thing about him saying he was "the chosen one". I only mentioned his twitter post.

 

[FenderTL5]

For sure not.

In this we agree.

Jewish leaders outraged by Trump saying Jews disloyal if they vote for Democrats
The remark led critics to argue the President was dabbling in the anti-Semitic trope of "dual loyalty," which questions the loyalty of Jewish citizens.
"It's unclear who @POTUS is claiming Jews would be 'disloyal' to, but charges of disloyalty have long been used to attack Jews. As we've said before, it's possible to engage in the democratic process without these claims. It's long overdue to stop using Jews as a political football," Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt tweeted later Tuesday.
Halie Soifer, executive director of the Jewish Democratic Council of America, called the comments "yet another example of Donald Trump continuing to weaponize and politicize anti-Semitism."
"If this is about Israel, then Trump is repeating a dual loyalty claim, which is a form of anti-Semitism. If this is about Jews being 'loyal' to him, then Trump needs a reality check. We live in a democracy, and Jewish support for the Republican Party has been halved in the past four years," Soifer added.
J Street, a liberal advocacy group focused on reaching a resolution between Israel and the Palestinian territories, said in a statement, "It is dangerous and shameful for President Trump to attack the large majority of the American Jewish community as unintelligent and 'disloyal.' "
The President has suggested that Jewish Americans, who are traditionally staunch supporters of the Democratic Party, are leaving it. But polling suggests that Jewish Americans continue overwhelmingly to be Democrats and opposed to Trump.
Jewish Americans voted for the Democratic Party by about a 3:1 margin in the 2018 midterm elections. And Jewish Americans are far more likely to call themselves Democrats than Republicans.
Trump has previously suggested Jewish Americans have a dual loyalty to Israel and its prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, including when he told the Republican Jewish Coalition in April that Netanyahu was "your prime minister."

It's a common white nationalist attack on Jewish Americans. "Their real loyalty is to Israel." Trump is just signalling his base that he's one of them.

So your basing this off one person who never had a consultation or any testing?

Your not serious

Gartner and the other 60,000 explained why they went public with the diagnosis in the psychology today article I put up in post #23 and #24 for the link. It’s obvious you didn’t bother to read it . As I’ve stated before it’s OBVIOUS to a layman that Trump is a flaming narcissist. The professionals went even further and described him as a sadist and a malignant narcissist.
