Donald Trump’s enduring appeal stems from the perception--his own and
others’­­--that he is not a person, Northwestern University psychologist Dan P.
McAdams wrote in New Lines Magazine. “In the minds of millions, Trump is more
than a person,” he wrote. “And he is less than a person too."

McAdams, the author of "The Strange Case of Donald J. Trump: A Psychological
Reckoning", realizes this argument may sound a little strange. But in the essay
“The Mass Psychology of Trumpism”, he explains how Trump supporters view him as
an almost mythical character who possesses extraordinary powers that are wielded
for good and against evil.

At the same time, he “lacks a narrative understanding of himself in time,”
McAdams writes. “At the center of Trump’s personality lies a narrative vacuum,
the space where the self-defining life story should be but never was. As such,
Trump is rarely introspective, retrospective or prospective. There is no depth,
no past, and no future.”

The Trumpswabs are fucking sociopathic idiots for their conception of Trump.
