      He’s too narcissistic for that.

      Chances are he’ll believe what his Jesus followers are saying and think that Jesus DID actually save him because he’s the chosen one

        No, people with NPD are constantly haunted by their mistakes, failures, and anxieties. Trump is an asshole because he’s neurotypical.

            I don’t think you know anything about psychiatry, seeing as you’re using the name of a fake disorder. Sociopathy isn’t really in the DSM, it’s not a mental disorder. It’s fake. You’ve been hoodwinked. It’s just Greek for socially ill person. You know, like autism. So forgive me for thinking you don’t know what you’re talking about when you say Trump has autism.

              Wow, you’re so clever you couldn’t even go to wiki for one second. Sociopathy is, in fact, real and refers to Antisocial Personality Disorder.

                Ohhhhhhh. Okay, I understand now. You were using a controversial slur to refer to a disorder whose actual name you full well know. Sorry, I was giving you the benefit of the doubt and starting from the assumption you didn’t hate disabled people. I understand now.

                  Don’t worry, much like sociopathy the current term will eventually also become a slur and need to be renamed again. This is the way of such things - so long as the thing is seen as something negative, the term for being/having that thing will take on a negative connotation over time. Several rounds of this is why the language has become so wordy and bloodless - if it’s enough of a pain to repeat in full every time it takes longer for it to become a slur.

                    Maybe words for disorders wouldn’t turn into slurs if people like you didn’t insist on stigmatising disorders by diagnosing evil public figures with them.

              Why don’t you whip out the ol DSM and read about antisocial personality disorder? Call it psychopathy, or sociopathy, or APD. A rose by any other name.

                I’m not going to do that, because I don’t call disabilities by slurs. I typically use the actual names of the disabilities instead.
