What odds are the bookies giving on hamberder clogged arteries winning before this term is up?

This guy gets a full body MRI (probably every year one or two). Judging by the timeline I would guess they started that as a response to Biden’s prostate cancer.

I wouldn’t hold my breath. Any significant medical condition they’ll find months in advance. There’s a reason why ultra-rich dipshits like Murdoch are seemingly indestructible.

Yeah I know, unfortunately. But I’m still holding out that living as a narcissist for his entire life has put a ton of strain on his body and he’ll have a stroke or something. He’ll never admit it (obv), but he knows tons of people hate him. Just look at how he reacts to any negative attention, like the recent SOTU where he got pissy that the dems wouldn’t stand and applaud for him.

Deep down in his lizard brain he knows he’s a piece of barely human garbage and it wears on his fatfuck old bones.

I wish you were right. I really do, but unfortunately, it’s really hard to understand true malignant personality level disorder narcissists like Trump. He doesn’t care because he thinks he’s the only one in the entire world or universe that exists.

Narcissists like this, they see everyone else as a puppet whose strings are dropped when he leaves the room, waiting for him to come back where they will then reanimate. That’s how they see human beings other than themselves. They literally can’t give a shit even if they wanted to about other people. You could more ask a person who has colorblindness, and can’t see red and green, to see red and green, then you could convince a narcissist at the level of Trump to care about another human being.

Even if it seems like he cares about someone else, it’s just that his agenda lines up with theirs. It’s always about him, always. Extreme narcissists are very predictable, they all act this way. Some people are narcissists on a much lower level. In fact, a lot of people have a smidge of narcissism, but the ones that are extreme narcissists, there’s no hope for them.

He doesn’t think he’s human garbage because he thinks he’s the only human being that exists, therefore, he thinks everything he thinks and feels is the only thing that is right and true. Nothing else registers. He doesn’t think or care that other people hate him because he thinks he’s the only person that matters and exists. It’s hard for us who aren’t like this to understand it, but when you’ve had a parent like this, you get to know the patterns.

I dunno, some of that sounds more solipsistic than a narcissist. He’s trying to shovel admiration (however fake or fawning it usually is) into a bottomless daddy-shaped abyss in what passes for his soul. If he truly didn’t care what people thought he wouldn’t react with reflexive infantile petulance and anger to his critics.

He’s barely had a conscious thought in his entire adult existence, but his subconscious knows his pain. Some people can shrug off criticism but it’s festering deep down in him somewhere that he can’t access. If he hadn’t been born with a million silver spoons up his ass he’d have been long dead already.
