He's just trying to cover his arse and recover what's left of his shattered reputation. Can't we just fucking universally shun this shit-head now? Keep reporting on his many transgressions, but stop giving the worthless cunt air-time and interviews.

We also should keep assuming he's lying. The two of them would happily fight in public and keep chatting on the phone or by email to cut back door deals for each other, if they thought it would relieve political pressure.

Remember, all they do is lie, all of every day, it's just that you don't always know about what or why. Everything in their lives is a con.

Which is exactly why we should not be listening to, reporting on or repeating anything he says unless it's under oath in one of his trials.

Nope. The reason he is doing this is to keep on getting the narcistic attention that all narcissists crave. Its the same reason he joined with Trump in the first place. He wanted to horn in on Trump's narcistic attention. And now after being fired he wants to keep on getting narcistic attention independently of Trump's narcistic attention.

And we keep giving it to him like a bunch of fucking chumps.

Why isn't the government testing people for narcissism and putting narcissists down??

[–] Almacca@aussie.zone 1 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I'd probably recommend therapy or something, especially if caught early, before anything that drastic. Maybe a Total Perspective Vortex?

Narcissists are irredeemable, there is nothing human in them. The only thing they're good for is labour camps. The USSR had the right idea about what to do with the mentally ill. Look up sluggish schizophrenia.

And maybe bring up actual positive initiatives, like unionization, whenever discussions do revolve around his self-serving talking points.
