I followed the link to ShitSocial so you didn't have to:
I wanted to testify on Monday, despite the fact that I already testified successfully, answering all questions having to do with the Fake, No Victims, No Jury lawsuit, thrown at me by the Corrupt Racist A.G., Letitia James, and presided over by a Trump hating judge who suffers from a massive case of Trump Derangement Syndrome, and is a puppet for the CROOKED A.G. Anyway, the Judge, Arthur Engoron, put a GAG ORDER on me, even when I testify, totally taking away my constitutional right to defend myself. We are appealing, but how would you like to be a witness and not be allowed free snd honest speech. THE TRIAL IS RIGGED. I DID NOTHING WRONG!!!
You know what? I can believe his lawyers didn't want him to go on the stand because he would violate the gag order, and his brain filtered it to "the gag order is keeping me from going on the stand."
Exactly as I keep saying. His NPD won't allow him to lose. His brain has to cast about for reasons. The shit he spouts is zero surprise to me. How else would such a brain frame all this?
I'm exhausted talking about it. But I doubt many people have had a true narcissist in their life. People with tendencies? Sure, we have all met those folks. But not a weapons-grade, DSM-5 diagnosed, narcissist like Trump.
LOL, people can't decide if he's an idiot or playing games. He's neither. He's a narcissist.
(Although I'd argue his dementia is becoming more and more clear by the day. BUT, much of that is fear, frustration and desperation.)
Narcissism is a spectrum. At the one end, you have people with low self esteem who look to getting reactions from others to feel better about themselves. At the other end, you have people with full on disassociation, that is, a lack of any sense of “self” at all, except from the reactions they get from others. It’s pretty clear Trump is pretty close to the pathological dissociative side of the spectrum.
The reactions narcissists get from others is called “supply”, and each narcissist looks for a specific flavor of supply that fills the void in their life, whether that’s a mild feeling of inadequacy or full fledged lack of self. Some supply is being loved. Some supply is being seen as a villain. Some supply is just being the center of attention. For Trump? It’s pretty clear that his supply is being seen as “successful”.
Narcissistic supply is an addictive drug to narcissists. It gives an instant high— a high of feeling “normal”— and also has instant lows. The moment supply is cut off, the narcissist’s mental dismay returns. Supply also has a problem of levels. A bigger dose of supply feels great, but it ALSO makes any additional supply that isn’t as strong as that one time feel like nothing.
Narcissists are junkies. They need their hit of supply, and will do literally anything to get it. And to get it as big as they’ve ever had it before.
While president, Trump got the biggest hit of supply the world has ever seen. Losing the presidency has lost him that supply… even the attention the news still gives him today isn’t anything like the supply of having the eyes of the entire world on him all the time.
As a junkie, he will do anything to get supply back. He would literally kill to do so. It might yet come to that.
This point really needs to be driven home constantly. Donald Trumps personality disorders are in control of every aspect of his life. He is incapable of self control.
Anyone with half a brain cell knew the moment it was announced Sunday that he would no longer be testifying that he'd be on Truth Social claiming he wanted to testify by Tuesday. He's as predictable as he is orange.
I'd love to see the judge call his bluff. "Oh, Mr. Trump, I see you posted to social media that you wanted to testify. I'm sure the prosecution is prepared to question you, so you can take the stand right now, unless your council objects."
