although he won't let Air Force One land at JFK when he goes to New York, lest he be associated with the man.

DeRump doesn't believe anything except that he is god. Or, maybe Reagan and Thatcher were gods and he is the son.

Anything else is pure bullshit fed him by FOX and Heritage, et al.

Does anyone here really believe he comes up with this stuff himself?

Probably doesn't even know who Thatcher was, for that matter. If he name drops them ever, it's to make himself look good and for no other reason.

The guy's an actual narcissist. Not in the same way that ALL politicians are (it's a job requirement), but in a "needs professional help" sort of way. I don't think Trump knows anything about them, because literally all he cares about is himself. It was always apparent, but somehow becomes more obvious with every decision.

I was just kiddin' about those two and in fact suspect his greatest influence was his dad. Every article I've read from people that actually had contact with Trump expressed the same astonishment at what a narcissist he is. I also suspect he sees his children entirely as an extension of himself.

to him, so he is trying to avoid having them blatantly insult him in public if he showed up to the ceremony.
