“You haven’t asked me one fucking positive question,” he said. “All of this. What about this? What about that? What about that? What about this? All negative.”

The president had been asked about whether Mitch McConnell should resign from the Senate because of his health issues. Trump responded by indicating that videos of McConnell struggling were a “disappointment to a lot of Republicans,” before noting that “Sleepy Joe gave pardons to everybody.” He then exploded, questioning why they were asking about the White House renovations so much, and griping that they hadn’t asked him about Venezuela. Time pointed out that they talked about Venezuela at length earlier in the interview.

“I don’t understand. I’m sitting here. I’ve done all this stuff,” Trump said. “I took the White House and made it beautiful again.”

Here's a positive question about his deeds that a reporter should ask:

Mr. President, how good did it feel to rape children?

I'm not sure narcissists really get better. Is that a thing? I don't really know.

In my experience, none of them have the self-awareness, seemingly, to seek out self-improvement to end their narcissism. And why would they? They've been operating that way all their lives, and some people are just users of others, so why would they want to fix something they figure is just a way of life? And that's people without billions allegedly to their name.

In many cases it just seems to fly under the radar. Siblings, co-workers, parents, kids, spouses - they all eventually figure out there is something "wrong" with the narcissist, and that it is not actually them at fault. The narcissist usually perfects the art of gaslighting others into thinking they are imagining stuff.
