this is exactly true
I really don’t like how people are diagnosing these fascists with personality disorders instead of acknowledging that this is the type of personality that psychology never bothered to pathologize because it neatly fits into our society and upholds the status quo
What sticks out to me is how absolutely unafraid of prosecution this psychopath is. Part of it is narcissistic personality disorder, but it's mostly the perceived weakness of Democrats. Should they retake power, no one expects Democrats to hold anyone accountable.
