22. Trump is the type of person who thinks if you don't like him

Dec 2016

then there is something wrong with you. It couldn't possibly be him, because he's so wonderful. Couldn't possibly be his actions or his words or how he treats people, it's you. You're wrong.

Oh, it wounds his ego to be so disliked but he'll turn it around in his head, so that it is everyone else with the problem, everyone else who is wrong. Not him. Never him.

He'll say the media is lying about his not being liked. That Democrats are bad losers. That people who can't see how great he is are people who are jealous of him.

Being unpopular is nothing new to Trump.

And the GOP don't care how unpopular he is as long as they can push through their agenda. As long as they have the numbers to do it, people can dislike Trump all they want.
