You'll vote for a narcissistic buffoon who is more concerned with how his numbers are and how big his crowds are than actually helping people. 

Naw, cuz I don't see myself ever voting democrat again in this lifetime.  Mark me safe!!

If you are referring to Joe Biden, then you would be right.

I wasn't, but nonetheless you managed to surprise me. Didn't think you'd vote for him, then again he and Trump have much in common so I guess I should've seen that coming.

I cannot vote for a guy that does not have all his facilities.  As in 2016, it will come down to the lesser of two evils, and to be honest, I don’t see much good coming out of the Democrat Party.

I guess we can agree on that, so there's that. I don't envy people that have to choose between what the general election in Nov is going to offer.

He literally said he cares about the numbers.

The issue presented isn't that Trump "cares about the numbers".. as in the number of Americans having the virus, succumbing to it, etc., the issue presented is that he only "cares about the numbers" because "it affects his re-election chances". The premise of this topic is the latter, that Trump's caring is for nefarious/"narcissistic" purposes. Yet you're showing a clip that he cares about the numbers as if that proves the latter, when it doesn't even mention his re-election at all. 😂

 

The only way to come to the conclusion of this is if you presume the Politico writer's narration of "my understanding". That, of course, is your prerogative. Some of us know better though. 🙂

I believe all politicians are narcissistic, in fact I believe it is part of the job description.  This is probably one of the reasons we still see Hillary.

Hillary is narcissistic for sure but Trump is on a different level.

I don’t think that anyone can really tell the difference.  Sure, their delivery is different, but if you remember all of Hillary’s “exaggerations”, they fall into Brian Williams level.

Me too, I miss the days that current events would only be described in the onion.
