The MAGA Cabal Re-Enters Stealth Mode - Part II

trump’s lies, fears, smoke and mirrors.

With a month’s worth of new evidence and information already confirming some of Part I’s predictions and with trump currently being at the center of so much news, it makes sense to provide additional clarity, analysis and emphasis on the psychological motivations beneath the surface of trump’s grandiose narcissism before moving on to the next form of the MAGA Cabal’s stealth mode. Hence, this analysis will continue to delve deeper into the lies, fears, smoke and mirrors used to hide the manipulative grandiosity of trump and others with similar forms of toxic narcissism.

We must be more aware of narcissist psychology to protect ourselves and democracy

Counter-Narcissist philosophy currently tells us that free societies desperately need more honest media, politicians, business leaders, educators, faith leaders, artists, intellectuals and analysts to clearly and concisely reveal and spread the truth that, “We the people” should have no more doubts that nearly every psychologically disordered authoritarian and their followers are currently working to take over every free country, and they will continue to grab at everything they can until stopped, because it is in their compulsively dysfunctional nature to do so.

They will steal our money, rights and powers, or as much of anything as they can get away with, because they live in a mentally disordered world of, “if you are not winning, you are losing,” “if you are not dominating, you are being dominated,” when you feel empty inside, fill your hole with shiny new things. This is what goes on in the mind of most narcissists like trump because their psyches are primarily rooted in black and white insecurities, fears, jealousies, ignorance and/or traumas, but genetics can often play a large if not near complete role too.

The above truths along with the knowledge that there are little to no effective treatments are why it must be much better known that there are a lot more of these stealth mode societal terrorists psychologically stuck on selfish lizard brain, who are working to sabotage every aspect of our society than the vast majority of the global population realizes.

What we have is a malignant narcissism epidemic that presents itself in many shapes, sizes and forms, which seems to be a big part of why so many do not see how the various disordered connective tissues have created cabals of dark narcissistic interests we are up against. Certainly, the public needs a broader psychological education to see the truths between the lies, or freedom-loving people will continue to waste precious time and lose ground fighting the wrong fights, on narcissistically disordered battlefields.

Not coincidentally, it greatly appears that much of the MAGA Cabal ownership, leadership, henchmen, cult and nearly all of their goals, present as high up on the darker parts of the narcissism spectrum, which would also explain why most seem to behave in such a self-serving cult-like fashion.

If you have not made the connection yet, most narcissists, sociopaths and psychopaths psychologically see the world in many of the same selfish and dishonest ways. This is part of why so many are such good liars and actors. In most clinical cases, they have had a lifetime of practice hiding their true nature, just as trump has done out of self-preservation his entire life. Due to the fact that he has mostly never faced any serious consequences for his use of narcissistic abuse to get whatever he wants, he has been consistently incentivized to continue his toxic behavior more publicly.

Grandiose narcissism counter-intuitive predator camouflage redux

In Part I, we recognized how every type of predator in nature (including the human kind) has its own form of stealth and/or camouflage to trick its prey, and how trump’s grandiose narcissism creates an ironic and illusory form of stealth mode.

To refresh, trump’s lesser known and used form of camouflage is highly counter-intuitive. It is generated by an entitled narcissist’s shameless compulsion to be as loud, obnoxious, cruel, traumatizing and as shocking as it takes to get what he wants.

Yes, this is a tantrum of a child who never grew up psychologically. In large part, this repeated behavior is due to him having no consequence for using toxic abuse since childhood to get his way. Clearly, this behavior has often worked for him to get himself off the hook for both psychological and real crimes nearly his entire life.

Besides having the money to bully people, a main reason he has gotten away with it for so long is because when someone is that toxic, most rational people want nothing to do with them, and “cut all ties.” Indeed, most experts say, “just get away” from toxic narcissists, because therapy rarely works long-term, so few if any ever change for the better.

In the common tongue of the MAGA Cabal, this is known as “you gotta let trump be trump” or he will throw more tantrums, throw you under the bus and will say things even more dangerous to the GOP owners and Republican Party than if they just let him say and do whatever he wants, because he is going to try to do it anyway. Basically anyone who works with trump but is not on the top predator level becomes a narcissistic abuse catcher’s Mitt.

trump dictator analysis and his compulsions are quickly confirmed

With trump now arguing in court that he should basically have “total immunity” for everything he has ever done or will do, he quickly confirmed CNI’s Part I analysis was correct, in that his narcissist psychology revealed his “one day” dictator political spin promise a month ago was nothing more than a totally manipulative lie. The truth is he is always pathologically attempting to move society’s Overton window towards his POV, which includes a level of acceptability for the dictatorship he needs to save his skin.

Obviously, what is a dictator if not someone declaring a fair election was stolen from them and they should have “total immunity” from the law despite the four trials and 91 charges against them, as they try to grab back the power they would be legally disqualified from, if we had a fully functioning DOJ and American democracy. Let’s, “make treason treason again.”

Of course in going from saying, “one day” dictator to essentially saying he should be dictator for life, or again talking about deserving a third term when only two terms are legal in just a month’s time, he also confirmed Part I’s most obvious and easiest prediction. trump is incapable of keeping his big mouth shut for long about wanting to be a dictator, or anything else on his mind. No doubt we can expect him to deny what the words mean, and then pathologically repeat the cycle of distraction, destruction and denial over and over again forever, or until stopped. Whichever comes first.

“Regardless of whether you believe trump’s dictator comments are a form of voter predator stealth distraction from his use of nazi terminology or the exposure of how his repeated legal macho bluster inevitably becomes cowardice, it is a near certainty that trump’s pathological narcissism will keep him repeating he wants to be a dictator, then deny it, rinse, repeat, and flood the media with more new shocking distractions to send them back to ambulance and clickbait chasing, again.” Part I - December 17, 23

In truth, the dictator prediction was also quite easy because as previously noted, almost every narcissist’s ultimate fantasy is to be a dictator forever. What narcissist would not want the power to boss everyone around, to never be held accountable for their purely selfish compulsions and dark psychology, to be cruel to those who oppose them, or those they just want to pick on, so they can feel powerful instead of ever reckoning with the bundle of deep insecurities, massive failures and mental weaknesses at least their subconscious knows is buried just beneath the surface.

The only ways trump is much different from most other rich, entitled and spoiled brat narcissists/most Republican politicians is that he is supremely grandiose because it is his nature, upbringing and he has never been held accountable, thus he is stupidly tone-deaf enough to reveal to the public what so many narcissists secretly and selfishly think, do and crave.

With his TV training and dark narcissism charisma, he naturally somehow spins his own selfishness in a way that makes much of the GOP cult foolishly believe him when he conflates his personal power with their power. As if trump would ever willingly or freely share anything with anyone.

As covered in the psychological defense class When to Believe Narcissists, when a narcissist says they want something that greatly benefits them, that is almost certainly a time to mostly believe them. In trump’s case as with many, many others, almost everything else is just their manipulative and selfish pathology compulsively grooming and gaslighting us with lies, fears, smoke and mirrors.

How trump fools so many

The way trump does it, he hides in plain sight by flooding the media’s and most normal human’s psychological zones by doing things like setting or declaring the world on fire, and then claiming “I alone can fix it,” or put out the fire. Otherwise, he claims everyone burns in “American carnage”

The result is, he says so much BS that everyone who believes him is terrified and captivated and everyone who sees through the narcissist’s psy op just wants to throw up their hands at the ridiculousness and insanity of it all, and just walk away.

Additionally, The power of the Big lie is that human nature tells us it cannot be a lie because it is so big, seemingly no sane or even rational person would tell that kind of lie, but that is the point and the proof. Indeed, few if any mentally stable people would tell a “big lie” short of being bribed or blackmailed, because they understand the consequences to their reputation.

Unfortunately, we are now living with the consequences of far too many psychologically disordered people reaching positions of power because they have no problem telling the big lies no psychologically “normal” person would willingly tell.

trump’s counter-intuitive unconscious method works by overwhelming society’s senses with mountains of divide and conquer lies, wedge issues, misinformation and cruelly denying the obvious, which in conjunction all seem very close to the true meaning of gaslighting.

What a coincidence that constant gaslighting is usually a key tell of clinical narcissists, sociopaths and psychopaths. They are constantly trying to confuse and exhaust their prey and enemies with BS, gaslighting and insanity so they leave, give up, or give in, aka submit.

This unfortunately means that when those with this kind of psychology are trying to take over your country, no matter who you are, if you do not protect your own freedoms and those of your people, and do everything in your power to stop them when you have a chance, history tells us you will greatly regret it.

It is fascinating and sad that with the exception of other malignant narcissists, everyone who supports trump will end up regretting it because no one in the history of humankind has ever been free with, or safe from a malignant narcissist with power, no matter what they promise.

Two reasons other malignant narcissists will never regret a world destroying trump regime is because they can never admit a mistake, and in large part due to their lack of empathy and sadism, they usually thrive in environments of human suffering and chaos.

History and empirical psychology has also taught us people with these disorders (often due to trauma and fear) are pathologically drawn to gaining money, power, control and domination over others to not feel weak. This means they will never stop until we force them to stop, or at least have them contained with banning, bankruptcy, and/or prison.

Ergo, if you know someone who thinks they will be safe under trump, they are either a fool, a Dunning Kruger, mind-controlled through a lifetime of narcissistic grooming and/or continuingly psychologically manipulated via propaganda, selfishly like-minded, or all of the above.

What a coincidence that trump, his attention-seeking flying monkeys, nazis and grandiose malignant narcissists all attempt to pull off their predatory attacks, lies and illusions by consistently saying and doing shocking, outrageous, ridiculous, demented and scary things, while forcefully admitting nothing, denying everything, and accusing everyone else of what they are saying, doing and really want.

Conclusions

Despite how dark narcissistic thoughts are at the center of trump’s disordered perceptions, even the evil clown fool must consciously recognize by now that rapidly spewing outrageous statements overwhelms the guardrail senses of our “free country” with so much triggering that even most of our honest politicians and foundations of civil society just seem to keep leaping from one outrage to another without effectively ever countering any of them. Like many narcissists, trump’s stealth mode is being hidden in the constant outrage and chaos that he creates himself.

This is a big part of why almost nobody without intense focus, time and/or resources has ever been able to pin the narcissist down and hold him accountable. He just rinses and repeats his rotation of go-to toxic outrages and false accusations as soon as anyone starts to focus on anything threatening to him. However, because narcissistic abuse is what he presents and saturates on a minute by minute daily basis, that is why distinguishing between his purpose and the pathology is so conflated and convoluted.

Sadly, trump’s pathological grandiose brand of stealth still seems to be mostly missed, fallen for, or just monetized by the MSM almost every single time. Additionally, due to most journalist’s lack of psychological understanding, he usually manipulates them into not staying on anything long enough to effectively educate the public, such as his massive psychological failings, compulsions and dysfunctions that should disqualify anyone from being fit to run for the Presidency once, let alone three times. The trump era will likely be looked back upon as the greatest psychological failing in American history.

This is also why the MSM/corporate media deserves a large portion of the blame for the state of our politics. As started with Reagan’s killing of the “Fairness Doctrine,” most media no longer seems interested in teaching us much of anything that needs to stick in the public’s psyche to help us preserve our freedoms, let alone the deeper psychological aspects of those who compulsively prey on and are currently threatening every democracy.

Of course a lot of the media is now owned by those who are allied or part of the Orwellian named “MAGA” Cabal who pathologically want to take away our human rights. What fools these wannabe oligarchs are in helping trump become dictator, when they will be essentially nationalized as his propaganda minions and/or be completely destroyed for any resistance, if he ever gets the power to do so.

Gee, who else foresaw allowing more money in politics and fewer people owning more media would result in all the worst narcissistic millionaires and billionaires trying to take over America and remake it under the banner of some selfish ideology that strangely always seems to benefit them, and those who loyally serve them at the expense of the country, the Constitution and even the continued survival of the human race?

It’s not complicated. It is just the standard compulsion of most clinical narcissists to grab everything they are allowed to grab, build an enemies list of those who try to stop them, and work to try to acquire flying monkeys who wittingly and unwittingly help them to gain more wealth, power, dominance and control.

Basically, this is the house the Republican Party and right-wing media built over decades for those who paid them surprisingly small amounts of money to sell the American people out.

Now we must all make a decision that holds the future of democracy, human rights and existence in the balance. As always, when it comes to people with these disorders who have some power, trump and the Republican Party has presented us all with a simple binary choice: Submit or rebel?
