According to the DSM-5, individuals with NPD have most or all of the following symptoms, typically without commensurate qualities or accomplishments:[8][11]
* Grandiosity with expectations of superior treatment from others
* Fixated on fantasies of power, success, intelligence, attractiveness, etc.
* Self-perception of being unique, superior and associated with high-status people and institutions
* Needing constant admiration from others
* Sense of entitlement to special treatment and to obedience from others
* Exploitative of others to achieve personal gain
* Unwilling to empathize with others' feelings, wishes, or needs
* Intensely jealous of others and the belief that others are equally jealous of them
* Pompous and arrogant demeanor
NPD usually develops by adolescence or early adulthood.[8] It is not uncommon for children and teens to display some traits similar to NPD, but these are typically transient without meeting full criteria for the diagnosis.[11] True NPD symptoms are pervasive, apparent in various situations, and rigid, remaining consistent over time. The symptoms must be severe enough that they significantly impair the individual's ability to develop meaningful relationships with others. Symptoms also generally impair an individual's ability to function at work, school, or in other important settings. According to the DSM-5, these traits must differ substantially from cultural norms in order to qualify as symptoms of NPD.[8]
Associated features
People with NPD tend to exaggerate their skills and accomplishments as well as their level of intimacy with people they consider to be high-status. Their sense of superiority may cause them to monopolize conversations[11] and to become impatient or disdainful when others talk about themselves.[8] In the course of conversation, they may purposefully or unknowingly disparage or devalue the other person by overemphasizing their own success. When they are aware that their statements have hurt someone else, they tend to react with contempt and to view it as a sign of weakness.[8] When their own ego is wounded by a real or perceived criticism, their anger can be disproportionate to situation,[11] but typically, their actions and responses are deliberate and calculated.[8] Despite occasional flare-ups of insecurity, their self-image is primarily stable (i.e., overinflated).[8]
To the extent that people are pathologically narcissistic, they can be controlling, blaming, self-absorbed, intolerant of others’ views, unaware of others' needs and of the effects of their behavior on others, and insistent that others see them as they wish to be seen.[8] Narcissistic individuals use various strategies to protect the self at the expense of others. They tend to devalue, derogate, insult, blame others and they often respond to threatening feedback with anger and hostility.[12] Since the fragile ego of individuals with NPD is hypersensitive to perceived criticism or defeat, they are prone to feelings of shame, humiliation and worthlessness over minor or even imagined incidents.[11] They usually mask these feelings from others with feigned humility, isolating socially or they may react with outbursts of rage, defiance, or by seeking revenge.[8][9] The merging of the "inflated self-concept" and the "actual self" is seen in the inherent grandiosity of narcissistic personality disorder. Also inherent in this process are the defense mechanisms of denial, idealization and devaluation.[13]
According to the DSM-5, "Many highly successful individuals display personality traits that might be considered narcissistic. Only when these traits are inflexible, maladaptive, and persisting and cause significant functional impairment or subjective distress do they constitute narcissistic personality disorder."[8] Although overconfidence tends to make individuals with NPD ambitious, it does not necessarily lead to success and high achievement professionally. These individuals may be unwilling to compete or may refuse to take any risks in order to avoid appearing like a failure.[8][9] In addition, their inability to tolerate setbacks, disagreements or criticism, along with lack of empathy, make it difficult for such individuals to work cooperatively with others or to maintain long-term professional relationships with superiors and colleagues.[14]Cornell University

Originally posted by WeAreNDHockey View PostThis should be exhibit 1 when people accuse the media of an anti-Trump bias. During the interview is when Blitzer should have confronted the Trumps spokesperson, not some minutes later when he offered what seems to be a pretty halfhearted correction about the timeline of Obama taking office and Khan's death. Perhaps if journalists would routinely call politicians and candidates out when they make blatantly incorrect statements, these statements would be less common. I know Trump uses non-traditional platforms to spread his message quite a bit, but the majority of his blather is spread through the so-called mainstream media. Had he been challenged a fraction of the time he misspoke, embellished or flat out lied, perhaps his candidacy would have lacked traction from the word go. Instead he's received the equivalent of billions of dollars of free advertising because he drives ratings.
Americans do a terrible job of being both responsible voters AND responsible consumers. Responsible consumers of media would demand better reporting by voting with their eyes, ears and dollars. And then we'd perhaps have political journalists who took seriously a responsibility to inform. Now the ONLY responsibility most media take is to the bottom line, and who can blame them?What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

Re: Campaign 2016 Part XVI: KICK THE BABY!
Still want Trump with the nuclear codes?
“I’ll have to be very careful here,” Scarborough said slowly. “Several months ago, a foreign policy expert on international level went to advise Donald Trump, and three times he asked about the use of nuclear weapons. Three times he asked, at one point, ‘If we have them, why can’t we use them?’ That’s one of the reasons why he just doesn’t have foreign policy experts around him.”
Scarborough, previously a Republican congressman from Florida, clearly startled his colleagues with this story. “Trump,” asked a nonplussed Mike Barnicle. “Trump asked three times?” “Three times, in an hour briefing,” confirmed Scarborough. “Why can’t we use nuclear weapons?”**NOTE: The misleading post above was brought to you by Reynold's Wrap and American Steeples, makers of Crosses.
