"DOESN'T PLAY WELL WITH OTHERS"

Does Trump actually believe that we believe that all the praise his toadies give him comes naturally? No way. I am sure that before any televised event, his minions are cautioned to thank him profusely, praise him unashamedly and kiss his ass in the most effusive possible terms. Today, while watching the announcement of the Israel-Arbab agreement, I was stunned at the amount of obsequious flattering that was required, no demanded. You could almost see Jared trembling in his thousand dollar shoes, and all the other toadies taking a deep breath, preparing for their prepared speeches. fearful they might forget one of the agreed-upon compliments. When Trump said he hoped the Abraham pact would be named for him, everybody laughed. But there is nothing funny about this limelight hog who  can't share a singe achievement, can't credit others, and requires ego-satisfaction around the clock. It's embarrassing to see such a needy national leader, such a transparent toddler. Even when he has that rare achievement, he always ruins it by being so pathetically egotistical and so sadly in need of excessive praise.
