  I'm not a fan of Stern at all, but I think he has some unique insight into Trump. What Stern says here fit's in with the 'suggestion' that has come up over and over regarding Trump's narcissistic personality. If it's true, Trump is not taking himself to a good place here.

Narcissism in leadership is very common. The ability to "inflate" your own achievements and abilities without realizing the actual inflation makes for interview situations where you are actually telling the truth from your own point of view. The narcissist point of view often shows inability to see self-owned flaws. There are so many studies on this, and they make for really interesting reads! Here is one from two decades ago:

 

Effects of Visual Perspective and Narcissism on Self-Perception: Is Seeing Believing?

 

Richard W. Robins, Oliver P. John

First Published January 1, 1997 

 

 

Abstract

 

 

Would people still see themselves through rose-colored glasses if they had the same perspective as others do? We contrast predictions from narcissism theory with cognitive-informational accounts of self-perception bias. Study I showed that narcissists enjoy situations in which they can view themselves from an external perspective, and report that such situations boost their self-confidence In Study 2, subjects evaluated their performance in a group task from the normal visual perspective of the self and from a “reversed” perspective (manipulated via videotape) Narcissists overestimated their performance, and reversing visual perspective did not reduce this self-enhancement bias Instead, we found a person-situation interaction Narcissists became even more positively biased in the reversed-perspective condition, whereas nonnarcissists showed even less bias Thus, allowing narcissistic individuals to observe themselves on videotape further increased their self-admiration, just as the mythical Narcissus admired his reflection in the pond.

We aren't really attacking...just getting some laughs.

 

We can't help it if so many things about Trump and the people he associates himself with are hilarious. With Trump things are pretty much either embarassing, horrifying or funny. I'd prefer to focus on the funny.

Right, it just never ends! 

Btw, I was reading that Ivanka has relocated her family to Washington DC.  In other news, Melania's office at the whitehouse is empty, as she remains in NYC.  She's probably relishing her "alone" time lol.
