It hasn’t been a year yet since I posted this article, but in light of Trump gaslighting America by saying his advice to ingest or inject cleaning chemicals into the body was “sarcasm,” I’m reposting this.
Some of Trump’s aides and enablers have been excusing Trump’s threats by insisting he was only joking.
Here’s a tweet I saw from an anonymous source:
He’s “just joking” when he says he’ll pardon aides for illegal acts, just like he kids about staying past his term
Trump himself regularly insists he was only joking when he’s called out about some of his threats to do things that are illegal, immoral, or cruel. His flying monkeys back him up on this and then blame our side of having “Trump Derangement Syndrome” when we don’t fall for these lies. This is gaslighting.
But Trump is a malignant narcissist, and malignant narcissists have no sense of humor. They do not joke, and therefore Trump does not joke. The only kind of “jokes” sociopaths and malignant narcissists understand are mocking or making fun of the weaker and more vulnerable. Unless you’re a fellow…

You don’t joke or have humor when you are in his position in this time of chaos.

To prevent folks from getting corona virus. I find that pathetic. Now the water is ok but for few days bleach taste was clearly felt.

I believe he called it “sarcasm” and then lied and said he was asking the ‘virus task health team’ but the question was directed to Dr. Birx. A true narcissist who blames everyone but himself and stupidly states ‘junk science’ of perhaps ingesting bleach or disinfectants into your body. Scary. Now the poison control centres are flooded with calls. What a hot mess.
Great article and much suited for what is happening now. Reblogged.

Thanks. I cannot recall even one time when Donald Trump ever admitted wrongdoing. It’s ALWAYS someone else’s fault.

You are right that malignant narcissists can’t joke. To know what is right or what is wrong one must have conscience and narcs lack it.
