Such a great example of how the narcissistic need to feel superior completely disrupts logic and creates psychotic thought process. It doesn’t matter that this is obviously ridiculous. Trump retweets it against all rationality because it devalues Obama. Reality takes a backseat

He believes this, and it’s important that everyone grasp that. He’s obsessed with where he stands in relation to other people on every metric, especially Obama. That preoccupation drives him to accept any bizarre idea that boosts his esteem. That’s what a “thought disorder” is.
It’s a form of mild psychosis where rationality and attachment to reality are suspended to maintain a false view of the world and oneself that’s become a primary concern. And it’s not at all uncommon in extreme personality disturbances.
And *everyone* should be concerned.
And *everyone* should be concerned.
Because he projects constantly, remember this is also a tell: he’s perfectly capable of doing something like this, himself, which is why he believes it.
