I don't think the projection arguement necessarily has to apply to everyone. I think some people can just be evil and it doesn't have to be the result of some kind of emotional defence mechanism.

No one is evil in their own story. If you want to understand someone, you have to make it make sense...There might be mental gymnastics involved, there might be hypocrisy, there might be incredible stupidity, but there's always some angle where what they did was justified somehow

Also, Trump has been flirting with men lately as his mind fails him... Just saying

The thing is he's pretty obsessed with his own daughter. If you look at historical pictures of him it's pretty clear it's more than just talk as well.

Well... Yeah, obviously

You realize there's more sexualities than just straight and gay, right?
