I fell into the trap of dismissing the latest trump inanity as just his stupidity (“her tests were negative, but then one was positive test, so tests don’t work”) But remember - I’ve known this guy since 87 & sometimes you have to consider his words through the lunacy filter.../1
...as everyone knows, trump is a malignant narcissist. Other people do not exist for him except as they reflect on him

I am convinced his “tests” comment meant - “she was being tested to protect ME, her tests were fine, but now a test was positive so it didn’t protect ME.../2
...and that just shows tests don’t work. “

Once you remove the idea that the reason for testing is to protect a community (for example, now this woman won’t be around others cause she knows she’s sick), and instead is all about Trump, his comment isn’t stupid. It’s evil.../3
...it is a problem when you have a stupid, narcissistic, paranoid sociopath. You can’t tell which psychological defect or combination of them is responsible for any one thing.

But I’m convinced. His “testing” comment wasn’t stupid. It was pathological narcissism.
