This.

It's why I'm here.

Its why I actively started posting on Twitter in '15, despite being there since '07.

My mother was this. I FULLY understand the danger!

While I find it jarring so many dont understand this, I also realize that unless encountered, personally, its very hard to grasp.

The Shallow State @ourshallowstate.bsky.social · Nov 14

Good time to repeat: We ALL know narcissists. But Malignant Narcissism is VERY different. It's truly at the root of the most vicious inhumanity through history. It's Narcissism WITH Sociopathy PLUS Paranoia AND Sadism. Incurable. ALWAYS get progressively worse.
Trump IS a malignant narcissist.

When I attend protests in NY or DC, or today in Boston, Yes a lot of the people there are seniors, so it makes it feel like they all feel this way.

But if you go to a pub or restaurant or CHURCH in the suburbs, it's filled with MAGA 70Plussers,
Or, hold their nose Rs who voted Trump all 3 times

I don't doubt you, but my experience is opposite. The 70 somethings who are Democrats are mad as hell! they've been fighting their whole life against this stuff, still believe the same as they did.
But all the Republicans are still just Fox & Fox Business 24/7.

I've not met a regretter yet.
